Black Coffee-Peggy Lee/Jimmy Rowles and His Orchestra

[00:07.90]I'm feelin' mighty lonesome, haven't slept a wink [00:19.27]And in between I drink, black coffee [00:28.11]Love's a hand-me-down brew [00:38.63]I'll never know a Sunday [00:43.17]In this weekday room [00:53.07]I'm talkin' to the shadows one o'clock till four [01:00.51]And Lord, how slow the moments go [01:04.49]When all I do is pour, black coffee [01:13.07]Since the blues caught my eye [01:23.49]I'm hangin' out on Monday [01:27.83]My Sunday dreams to dry [01:37.69]Now man is born to go a lovin [01:46.78]A woman's born to weep and fret [01:53.46]To stay at home and tend her oven [02:00.55]And down her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes [02:09.66]I'm moonin' all the mornin', moanin' all the night [02:16.05]And in between it's nicotine [02:19.98]And not much heart to fight, black coffee [02:29.14]Feelin' low as the ground [02:35.63]It's drivin' me crazy this waiting for my baby [02:44.51]To maybe come around
