Lyrics for Song: Cigarettes and coffee
Lyrics for Album: Dreams To Remember: The Otis Redding Anthology [1998]
It's early in the morning
About a quarter 'til three
I'm sitting here talkin' with my baby
Over cigarettes and coffee, now
And to tell you that
Darling, I've been so satisfied
Honey, since I met you
Baby, since I met you, whoa
All the places that I've been around
And all the good-looking girls I've met
They just don't seem to fit in
No, in this particular set, yeah
But it seemed so natural, darling
That you and I are here
Just talking over cigarettes and drinking coffee.
Oh my heart cries out
Love, at last I've found you, oh now
And honey won't you let me
Just build my whole life around you
And whoa, how complete; how complete my whole life would be, yeah
If you would take things under consideration
And walk down this aisle with me
I would love it, yeah
People I say it's so early in the morning
Ooh, it's a quarter till three
We're sitting here talking
Over cigarettes and drinking coffee, now, lord
And I'd like to show you, well
I've known nothing but good old joy
Since I met you, darling
Honey since I've met you, baby yeah
I would love to have another drink of coffee, now
And please, darling, help me smoke just one more cigarette, now
I don't want no cream and sugar
'cause I've got you, now darling
But just let me enjoy
Help me to enjoy
This good time that we'll have, baby
It's so early, so early in the morning
So early, so early in the morning
And I've got you
And you've got me
And we'll have each other
And we don't, we don't want nothing but joy, y'all
Nothing but joy...
