Ain't Got Nobody To Grind My Coffee

Ain't Got Nobody To Grind My Coffee - Clara Smith

Written by：Clarence Williams/Bud Alle

Once I had a loving daddy

Just as sweet as he could be

But my ever loving daddy

He's a gone from me

And since he left me behind

Here's what's on my mind I find

Ain't got nobody to grind my coffee in the morning

Ain't got nobody to serve my breakfast in bed

My daddy went away

A week ago today

How am I gonna find another coffee grinder

To do my grindin' like my sweet man could do

Ain't got nobody to light my brand new percolator

Ain't got nobody to heat my oven duly

When my daddy would love me he was oh so good

He could even haul my ashes he would chop my kindlin' wood

Ain't got nobody to love me like before

And do my grinding for me

My daddy used to love me pretty I'll confess

Believe me he could do it different from the rest

Ain't got nobody who could put me to a test

And do my grinding for me I say

And do my grinding for me
