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.
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

Drinking black coffee and cigarettes
Trying to remember what you told me to forget

You're drinking black coffee and cigarettes.
