One More Cup Of Coffee

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 yourself And your pleasure knows
no limits Your voice is like
a meadow lark 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
