Coffee Break Blues (Rob van Wely)

I’m gonna drink a cup of coffee
And smoke a cigarette
I’m gonna drink a cup of coffee
And smoke a cigarette
You know I’m not here just for money,
Lend me an ear you’ll make me glad
’Cause I’ve been singin’ in the mornin’
Singin’ still at night
I try to make a fortune
But that’ll never keep me satisfied
So I’m gonna drink a cup of coffee
And smoke a cigarette
You know I’m not here just for money,
Lend me an ear you’ll make me glad

Then I’ll be going down the station
To take a train out of this town
You’ll see me stumblin’ down your station
Take a train out of this town
You know my lady she’s going crazy
Told her I’d come can’t let her down
’Cause she’s a-naggin’ in the morning
Naggin’ still at night
I tried my best to please her
But she’s just never satisfied (just like me)
(and even worse)
That’s why I’m stumblin’ down the station
To take a train out of this town
You know my lady she’s going crazy
Told her I’d come can’t let her down





But first of all I better take a break
-pass the hat around- and
Drink that cup of coffee
And smoke another cigarette
Yes I’m gonna smoke a cup of coffee
And drink another cigarette
You know I’m not here just for money,
Something to smoke would make me glad
’Cause I’ve been singin’ in the mornin’
And I‘ll singin’ till late at night
I try to make a fortune
But I’ just never satisfied (always want more & more)
So I’m gonna drink a cup of coffee
And smoke another cigarette
You know I’m not here just for money,
If you give me loads you’ll make me glad (just the same)
I said I’m not here just for the money
But if you got enough
You could buy a cassette (or a cd)
