One More Cup Of Coffee

Roger McGuinn · Other Songs - Roger McGuinn

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 at all

No gratitude or 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 'fore 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 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 'fore I go

To the valley below



Your sister sees the future

Like your mama and yourself

You've never learned to read or write

There's no books upon your shelf



And your pleasure knows no limits

Your voice is like a meadowlark

But your heart is like an ocean

Mysterious and dark



One more cup of coffee for the road

One more cup of coffee 'fore I go

To the valley below



To the valley below

To the valley below

To the valley below

To the valley below

To the valley below

To the valley below
