Ella Fitzgerald — Black Coffee lyrics
The page contains the lyrics of the song "Black Coffee" by Ella Fitzgerald.
Lyrics
IЂ™m feelinЂ™ mighty lonesome
HavenЂ™t slept a wink
I walk the floor from nine to four
In between I drink
Black coffee
LoveЂ™s a hand-me-down brew
IЂ™ll never know a sunday
In this weekday room
IЂ™m talkin to the shadow
One oЂ™clock till four
And lordhow slow the moments go And all I do is pour
Black coffee
Since the blues caught my eye
IЂ™m hanginЂ™ out on monday
My sunday dreams to dry
Now man was born to go a lovinЂ™
But was a woman born to weep and fret
And stay at home and tend her oven
And down her past regrets
In coffee and cigarettes
IЂ™m mooninЂ™ all the morninЂ™
MoaninЂ™ all the night
And in between itЂ™s nicotine
And not much heart to fight
Black coffee
FeelinЂ™ low as the ground
ItЂ™s drivinЂ™ me crazy
This thinkinЂ™ Ђ™bout my baby
Might maybe come around
Come around
