The Jayhawks - Five Cups of Coffee lyrics

(Olson, Louris) Gunflint Music BMI When I left here this morning Just like before You say nothing changes Pa**ing 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 Chorus: 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 need me So easy to believe In someone I'd never see (Chorus) (Chorus)
