[00:04](The Intimate Ella)
[00:07]
[00:08.46]I'm feeling mighty lonesome
[00:13.56]Haven't slept a wink
[00:16.93]I walk the floor and watch the door
[00:21.18]And in between I drink
[00:25.80]Black Coffee
[00:30.42]Love's a hand me down brew
[00:40.43]I'll never know a Sunday
[00:45.68]In this weekday room
[00:55.82]
[00:55.95]I'm talking to the shadows
[01:00.68]1 o'clock to 4
[01:03.80]And Lord, how slow the moments go
[01:08.18]When all I do is pour
[01:11.80]Black Coffee
[01:16.80]Since the blues caught my eye
[01:26.68]I'm hanging out on Monday
[01:31.49]My Sunday dream's too dry
[01:40.18]
[01:41.61]Now a man is born to go a lovin'
[01:49.24]A woman's born to weep and fret
[01:56.92]To stay at home and tend her oven
[02:04.74]And drown her past regrets
[02:08.86]In coffee and cigarettes
[02:13.30]
[02:14.12]I'm moody all the morning
[02:18.24]Mourning all the night
[02:21.49]And in between it's nicotine
[02:25.62]And not much hard to fight
[02:29.93]Black Coffee
[02:35.18]Feelin' low as the ground
[02:41.74]It's driving me crazy just waiting for my baby
[02:49.37]To maybe come around
[02:59.68]
[03:00.93]My nerves have gone to pieces
[03:04.87]My hair is turning gray
[03:08.99]All I do is drink black coffee
[03:14.31]Since my man's gone away
[03:26.06]
