40 Cups of Coffee lyrics

Pace the floor, stop and stare

I drink a cup of coffee and start to combin' out my hair

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee, waitin' for you to come home

A quarter to twelve, you're still not in

The way you run around is a doggone sin

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee, waitin' for you to come home

A quarter to three, I start watching the clock

The phone won't ring, so I'm waitin' for your knock

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee, waitin' for you to come home

A quarter to four, you ain't got home yet

I try to be cool and smoke a cigarette

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee, waitin' for you to come home

You knock on the door about a quarter to five

I wanna hug and kiss you and say "I'm glad you feel alive"

I drank forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee, but I'm glad that you finally came home
