Forty Cups of Coffee

Forty Cups Of Coffee - Bill Haley

Pace the floor

Stop and stare

I drink a cup of coffee

Start to pulling out my hair

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Waiting for you to come home

A quarter to twelve

And 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

Waiting for you to come home

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

A quarter to three

I start watching the clock

The phone won't ring

So I'm waiting for your knock

I drink forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Waiting 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

Waiting for you to come home

You knock on the door

About a quarter to five

I wanna hug you and kiss you

And say thank God that you're alive

I drank forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

Forty cups of coffee

But I'm glad you finally came home
