Black Coffee Lyrics - The Atlantic Years - In Mono - Ray Charles

I'm feelin' mighty lonesome 

Haven't slept a wink 

I walk the floor an' watch the door 

In between I drink 

Black coffee ... 

Love's a hand-me-down room 

I'll never know a Sunday 

In this weekday room. 

Been talkin' to the shadows 

One o'clock 'til four 

An' Lord how slow the moments go 

When all ya do is pour 

Black coffee ...

Since the blues caught my eye 

I'm hangin' out on Monday 

My Sunday dreams to dry. 

You know a man is born to love a woman 

To work and slave to pay her debts 

Just because he's only human 

To drown his past regrets 

In coffee and cigarettes. 

I'm moonin' all the mornin' 

Mournin' all the night 

In between it's nicotine 

Not much heart to fight 

Black coffee ... 

Feelin' low as the ground 

I'm waitin' for my baby 

To maybe come around. 

Gonna drown my past regrets 

In some coffee and a few cigarettes. 

I'm moonin' all the mornin' 

Mournin' all the night 

In between it's nicotine 

And not much heart to fight 

Black coffee ... 

Feeling low as the ground 

It's driving me crazy! 

Just waitin' for my baby 

To maybe come around. 

Please come around 

Please come ...
