Instant Coffee Blues - Guy Clark[00:00:00]
Now he washed all the road dirt[00:00:14]
From his face and from his neck[00:00:16]
Sat down at her table[00:00:21]
And she picked up his check[00:00:23]
And she took him home for reasons[00:00:27]
That she did not understand[00:00:30]
And him he had the answers[00:00:34]
But he did not show his hand[00:00:36]
Cause him may knew the taste[00:00:40]
Of this wine very well[00:00:43]
It all goes down so easily[00:00:47]
But the next day is hell[00:00:50]
Morning man was I drunk[00:01:06]
She whispered in the shower[00:01:09]
While he lay there and smoked[00:01:12]
His way there through the final hour[00:01:15]
She felt wholly empty[00:01:20]
Like she'd felt it every time[00:01:22]
And he was feeling just the same[00:01:26]
Accept he was trying to make it rhyme[00:01:29]
Time was of the essence so they both did their best[00:01:33]
To meet up in the kitchen feeling fully dressed[00:01:40]
She just had to go to work[00:01:47]
And he just had to go[00:01:50]
And she knew where and he knew how[00:01:54]
To blow it off and so[00:01:57]
They shot the breeze quite cavalier[00:02:00]
To the boiling of the pot[00:02:03]
And sang the Instant Coffee Blues[00:02:07]
And never fired a shot[00:02:11]
And him he hit the driveway with his feelings in a case[00:02:14]
And her she hit the stop light and touched up her face[00:02:21]
So you tell them the difference between caring and not[00:02:27]
And that it's all done with mirrors lest they forgot[00:02:34]
I said it's all done with mirrors of which they have none[00:02:41]
To blend the instant coffee blues into the morning sun[00:02:48]
