ella fitzgeraldın ve nearly godın söledii paul francis webster ve sonny burke ün bestelediği bi parçadır bu.
sanki life in mononun sözlerde bi cümle^* burdan arak gibidir.

işte sözler:

i'm feelin' mighty lonesome
haven't slept a wink
i walk the floor and watch the door
in between i drink
black coffee
love's a hand-me-down brew
i'll never know a sunday
in this weekday room

i'm talkin to the shadow
one o'clock till four
and lord, how slow the moments go
and all i do is pour
black coffee
since the blues caught my eye
i'm hangin' out on monday
my sunday dreams to dry

now man was born to go a lovin'
but was a woman born to weep and fret
and stay at home and tend her oven
and drown her past regrets
in coffee and cigarettes

i'm moanin' all the mornin'
moanin' all the night
and in between it's nicotine
and not much heart to fight
black coffee
feelin' low as the ground
it's drivin' me crazy
this waiting for my baby
might maybe come around
come around
my nerves have gone to pieces
my hair is turning gray
all i do is drink black coffee
since my man has gone away

everlast , eat at whiteys'de sözlerini şöyle buyurmuş:

she smelled like flowers, she tastes like toffee
she kissed me slowly, she held me softly
got too close and she backed up off me
left me stone cold sober just like black coffee
lust like black coffee
she told me that she'd always be thinkin' of me
she said, she wanted me to know that she really did love me
she said, she never put no one else above me
except her monkey, she's like a junkie
just like a junkie, just like a junkie

it was april 25th, it's up around 80
found a spot out in the park where the grass is shady
she said her mom's from jamaica said her father's from haiti
such a pretty lady, she's such a lady

she smelled like flowers, she tastes like toffee
she kissed me slowly, she held me softly
got too close and she backed up off me
she left me stone cold sober just like black coffee
just like black coffee, just like black coffee , just like black coffee

harbiden insan "stone cold sober" oluyormuş, sonra tekrar içkiye yumuluyormuş^*.

the seatbelts'in bir şarkısı. tüm şarkı boyunca hafif oynak bir ritm ve gevşek bir trompet riffi duyulur. sözlerinde ise herifin teki kızı kahve içmeye çağırmaktadır kız da gevşek gevşek "no" diyip durur, insanı delirtir. ama no diyesi bile çok şeker kızın...

sonny burke tarafından bestelenen ve sözleri paul francis webster tarafından yazılan 1948 tarihli meşhur şarkı. 1949 yılında sarah vaughan tarafından meşhur edilmiş, daha sonra 195 yılında peggy lee tarafından yeniden listelere sokulmuştur. 1960 tarihli let no man write my epitaph filminde, şarkının ella fitzgerald tarafından seslendirilen yeni bir versiyonuna yer verilmiştir. sözleri şöyledir;

i'm feeling mighty lonesome
haven't slept a wink
i walk the floor and watch the door
and in between i drink

black coffee
love's a hand me down brew
i'll never know a sunday
in this weekday room

i'm talking to the shadows
one o'clock to four
and lord, how slow the moments go
when all i do is pour

black coffee
since the blues caught my eye
i'm hanging out on monday
my sunday dreams to dry

now a man is born to go a lovin'
a woman's born to weep and fret
to stay at home and tend her oven
and drown her past regrets
in coffee and cigarettes

i'm moody all the morning
mourning all the night
and in between it's nicotine
and not much heart to fight

black coffee
feelin' low as the ground
it's driving me crazy just waiting for my baby
to maybe come around

my nerves have gone to pieces
my hair is turning gray
all i do is drink black coffee
since my man's gone away
