Your breath is sweet
|
Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky
|
Your back is straight your hair is smooth
|
On the pillow where you lie
|
But I don't sense affection
|
No gratitude or love
|
Your loyalty is not to me
|
But to the stars above
|
|
One more cup of coffee for the road
|
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go.
|
To the valley below.
|
|
Your daddy he's an outlaw
|
And a wanderer by trade
|
He'll teach you how to pick and choose
|
And how to throw the blade
|
He oversees his kingdom
|
So no stranger does intrude
|
His voice it trembles as he calls out
|
For another plate of food.
|
|
One more cup of coffee for the road
|
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go.
|
To the valley below.
|
|
Your sister sees the future
|
Like your mama and yourself
|
You've never learned to read or write
|
There's no books upon your shelf
|
And your pleasure knows no limits
|
Your voice is like a meadowlark
|
But your heart is like an ocean
|
Mysterious and dark.
|
|
One more cup of coffee for the road
|
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go.
|
To the valley below.
