I'm Not There movie - One More Cup Of Coffee lyrics

rate me

Song by Roger McGuinn / Calexico<br /><br>

(Feat. Calexico) <br>

<br>

Your breath is sweet <br>

Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky. <br>

Your back is straight, your hair is smooth <br>

On the pillow where you lie. <br>

But I don't sense affection <br>

No gratitude or love <br>

Your loyalty is not to me <br>

But to the stars above. <br>

<br>

One more cup of coffee for the road, <br>

One more cup of coffee 'fore I go <br>

To the valley below. <br>

<br>

Your daddy he's an outlaw <br>

And a wanderer by trade <br>

He'll teach you how to pick and choose <br>

And how to throw the blade. <br>

He oversees his kingdom <br>

So no stranger does intrude <br>

His voice it trembles as he calls out <br>

For another plate of food. <br>

<br>

One more cup of coffee for the road, <br>

One more cup of coffee 'fore I go <br>

To the valley below. <br>

<br>

Your sister sees the future <br>

Like your mama and yourself. <br>

You've never learned to read or write <br>

There's no books upon your shelf. <br>

And your pleasure knows no limits <br>

Your voice is like a meadowlark <br>

But your heart is like an ocean <br>

Mysterious and dark. <br>

<br>

One more cup of coffee for the road, <br>

One more cup of coffee 'fore I go <br>

To the valley below.<br>

<br>
