When I finally finished school
|
It was the first thing that I did
|
What every townie kid dreams of,
|
I packed and started west
|
A thousand dollars I had saved
|
And my sister's two cassettes:
|
The Dead from Fillmore East
|
And Otis Redding's Greatest Hits
|
|
Coffee and Cigarettes
|
As simple as it gets
|
Of all the things I think I'll miss,
|
There's staying up with you
|
Coffee and Cigarettes
|
Coffee and Cigarettes
|
|
Then, I commit with some restraint
|
To a boy I thought might care
|
It didn't work but I found out soon
|
And never dug roots there
|
Been a lot of places since
|
But nothing else compares
|
To easy times and easy eyes
|
To meet you in a stare
|
|
Coffee and Cigarettes
|
As simple as it gets
|
Of all the things I think I'll miss,
|
Staying up with you
|
Coffee and Cigarettes
|
