Rick Danko

I walked into a diner
And the blonde behind the counter
She asked if she could help in any way
Hell, I knew by her smile
Her number I could dial
If I was in the need of company
But as I bought some Java
Instead she brought me a cup of chicory
I got those Java blues
Coffee’s got me
Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee, coffee
Java blues
Coffee’s got me
Java blues
Oh coffee
You know that I’ll stay high
I’ll drink coffee ‘till I die
Don’t pour me water just fill up my cup
You know it takes a lot just to keep me up
Cost may be more than you care to pay
What good is money compared to fightin’ pain
Don’t try to cheat
It’s impossible to beat
The only pick me up that’s here to stay
I got those Java blues
Coffee’s got me
Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee, coffee
Java blues
Oh coffee, oh coffee
Java blues
Coffee’s got me
You know that I’ll stay high
I’ll drink coffee ‘till I die
The taste of Java is like a cocaine rush
Nobody’s gonna stop me from drinkin’ too much
Down in Bolivia the people are insane
They want as much for coffee as they do for cocaine
Don’t try to cheat
It’s impossible to beat

The only pick me up that’s here to stay
I got those Java blues
Coffee’s got me
Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee, coffee
Java blues
The coffee’s got me now..
Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee
You know that I’ll stay high
I’ll drink coffee ‘till I die
I got the Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee
Java blues
Oh coffee, coffee, coffee
Java blues
Oh the coffee’s got me
Java blues
Oh coffee, oh coffee
