java blues
Stopped by a diner, and the blond behind the counter  Asked if she could help in any way  I could tell by her smile, her number I could dial  If I was in the need of company  I asked her for some Java  Instead she brought a cup of chickory  A taste of Java is like a volcanic rush  Nobody's gonna stop me from drinking too much  Costs many more than you care to pay  But money is nothin, compared to a fired-up day  Don't try to cheat, it's impossible to beat  The only pick-me-up that's here to stay  Java Blues... coffee's got me  Java Blues... coffee coffee coffee  Java Blues... well the coffee's got me  Java Blues... coffee coffee coffee  You know that I'll stay high  Drinkin coffee till I die  Java blues  Won't you boil me water, fill up my cup  You know it takes a lot to keep me up  Down in Bolivia, the people are insane  They want as much for Java as they do for cocaine  Don't try to cheat, it's impossible to beat  The only pick-me-up that's here to stay  Java Blues... coffee's got me  Java Blues... coffee coffee coffee  Java Blues... you don't know what it does to me  Java Blues... coffee coffee coffee  You know that I'll stay high  Drinkin coffee till I die  Java Blues...
