I don't drink, I just smoke I don't give up no more And I don't use no talk. All I wanna do is be with you Smoke my cigarettes and have some jar of blue Make it black, and strong, that's what I need Cause when I fake a little , don't you know what I bleed? I bleed blues, and rhythm, and rock'n roll All that funky stuff that shakes up my soul
Chorus: Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what you told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes.
Now coffee next to oil is the second greatest treated commodity I don't know what that means! All I know I'm black and I'm blue, and I'm crazy for you Sometimes I just got to scream (Go on and scream it boy!) I'm black, and I'm blue, and I'm crazy for you Sometimes I just got to scream (Go on and scream it boy!) Even now sometimes I couldn't name us Cause love is black (love is black) And you can't see the future, You just say 'who's her?' She shown up this time
Chorus: Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what you told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes.
I took a bus trip back in time Round 66 when it was the main line I saw TVs and motel, design like... And man, I saw that place where you'd be what it's been But nostalgia ain't what you should be? When you take out the good parts and leave the misery But if I had to to it again You know I'd do it with you, it was dumb like sin, yeah!
Chorus: Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what you told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes. I'm singing (la la la la) Yeah, yeah, yeah (la la la la) I'm singing (la la la la) Drinking black coffee and cigarettes Trying to remember what you told me to forget When you love somebody, then you split You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes. Drinking black coffee and cigarettes.
