Five Cups of Coffee
The Jayhawks
from "Blue Earth" (Twin/Tone Records, 1989)

Then I left here this morning it was just like before
You say nothing changes passing time around here
Stole a long string of pearls and I pawned downtown
Gonna buy me some good fun back where no one can see
<>
And the long black dream is over as the snow falls on and on
And it takes five cups of coffee to calm down before I sleep
<>
Let the sky soak on my clothes way back in the alley
All of the red beads mixed up in her pew
Take the chance that I left you knowing where you might lead me
So easy it is to believe in someone I never see
