Mornin Cigar
Verse 1
Morning rain keeps me in bed
Last nights beer is banging my head
I need to get up and shake leg
My mind is blank I forget what I said
I reach out for my cigarettes
And that first smoke is as good as it gets
Chorus
Black Coffee and Nicotine
There’s something missing in my bloodstream
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need, Is all I need
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Roll me over and let me dream
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need, Is all I need
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Roll another so I can breathe
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need
Verse 2
Pull on my jeans and clear my throat
Strike the lighter for another smoke
I’d by more coffee if I wasn’t broke
Another gig that we’ve got to promote
I can’t sing the words that I wrote
But I’ll be fine when I hear the notes
Repeat chorus
Verse 3
Put on a shirt and fall outside
Stood by the road only half alive
A van pulls up with the band inside
Another show where gonna rock tonight
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Morning rain keeps me in bed
Last nights beer is banging my head
I need to get up and shake leg
My mind is blank I forget what I said
I reach out for my cigarettes
And that first smoke is as good as it gets
Chorus
Black Coffee and Nicotine
There’s something missing in my bloodstream
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need, Is all I need
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Roll me over and let me dream
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need, Is all I need
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Roll another so I can breathe
Black Coffee and Nicotine
Is all I need
Verse 2
Pull on my jeans and clear my throat
Strike the lighter for another smoke
I’d by more coffee if I wasn’t broke
Another gig that we’ve got to promote
I can’t sing the words that I wrote
But I’ll be fine when I hear the notes
Repeat chorus
