Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Your breath is sweet
Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky
Your back is straight, your hair is smooth
On the pillow where you lie

But I don't sense affection
No gratitude, no love
Your loyalty is not to me
But to the stars above

One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee before I go
To the valley below

Your daddy, he's an outlaw
And a wanderer by trade
He'll teach you how to pick and choose
And how to throw the blade

He oversees his kingdom
So no stranger does intrude
His voice it trembles as he calls out
For another plate of food

One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee before I go
To the valley below

Your sister sees the future
Like your Mama and yourself
You've don't know how to read or write
There's no books upon your shelf

But your pleasure knows no limits
And your voice is like a meadowlark
Your heart is like the ocean
Mysterious and dark

One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
To the valley below
Your breath is sweet   Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky   Your back is straight, your hair is smooth   On the pillow where you lie      But I don't sense affection   No gratitude, no love   Your loyalty is not to me   But to the stars above      One more cup of coffee for the road   One more cup of coffee before I go   To the valley below      Your daddy, he's an outlaw   And a wanderer by trade   He'll teach you how to pick and choose   And how to throw the blade      He oversees his kingdom   So no stranger does intrude   His voice it trembles as he calls out   For another plate of food      One more cup of coffee for the road   One more cup of coffee before I go   To the valley below      Your sister sees the future   Like your Mama and yourself   You've don't know how to read or write   There's no books upon your shelf      But your pleasure knows no limits   And your voice is like a meadowlark   Your heart is like the ocean   Mysterious and dark      One more cup of coffee for the road   One more cup of coffee 'fore I go   To the valley below
