《Instant Coffee Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Instant Coffee Blues - Guy Clark

[00:00:14] Now he washed all the road dirt

[00:00:16] From his face and from his neck

[00:00:21] Sat down at her table

[00:00:23] And she picked up his check

[00:00:27] And she took him home for reasons

[00:00:30] That she did not understand

[00:00:34] And him he had the answers

[00:00:36] But he did not show his hand

[00:00:40] Cause him may knew the taste

[00:00:43] Of this wine very well

[00:00:47] It all goes down so easily

[00:00:50] But the next day is hell

[00:01:06] Morning man was I drunk

[00:01:09] She whispered in the shower

[00:01:12] While he lay there and smoked

[00:01:15] His way there through the final hour

[00:01:20] She felt wholly empty

[00:01:22] Like she'd felt it every time

[00:01:26] And he was feeling just the same

[00:01:29] Accept he was trying to make it rhyme

[00:01:33] Time was of the essence so they both did their best

[00:01:40] To meet up in the kitchen feeling fully dressed

[00:01:47] She just had to go to work

[00:01:50] And he just had to go

[00:01:54] And she knew where and he knew how

[00:01:57] To blow it off and so

[00:02:00] They shot the breeze quite cavalier

[00:02:03] To the boiling of the pot

[00:02:07] And sang the Instant Coffee Blues

[00:02:11] And never fired a shot

[00:02:14] And him he hit the driveway with his feelings in a case

[00:02:21] And her she hit the stop light and touched up her face

[00:02:27] So you tell them the difference between caring and not

[00:02:34] And that it's all done with mirrors lest they forgot

[00:02:41] I said it's all done with mirrors of which they have none

[00:02:48] To blend the instant coffee blues into the morning sun
