[Intro]

    
   
 


[Verse 1]

     
Your breath is

 sweet, your e

yes are like

Two jewels in 

the sky

Your back is s

traight, your 

hair is smooth
       
On the pillow 

where you lie

But I don't se

nse affection

No gratitude o

r love
             
Your loyalty i

              
s not to me bu

 
t to the stars

 above


[Chorus]

             
One more cup o

              
f coffee for t

   
he road
             
One more cup o

              
f coffee 'fore

   
 I go
          
To the valley 

         
below


[Verse 2]

     
Your daddy he'

s an outlaw
      
And a wanderer

 by trade

He'll teach yo

u how to pick 

an' choose
    
And how to thr

ow the blade

   He oversees

 his kingdom

So no stranger

 does intrude

His voice it t

rembles as he 

calls out
     
For another pl

ate of food


[Chorus]

             
One more cup o

              
f coffee for t

   
he road
             
One more cup o

              
f coffee 'fore

   
 I go
          
To the valley 

         
below


[Verse 3]

     
Your sister se

es the future

Like your momm

a and yourself

You've never l

earned to read

 or write
        
There's no boo

ks upon your s

helf
    
And your pleas

ure knows no l

imits
     
Your voice is 

like a meadow 

lark
       
But your heart

 is like an oc

ean

Mysterious and

 dark


[Chorus]

             
One more cup o

              
f coffee for t

   
he road
             
One more cup o

              
f coffee 'fore

   
 I go
          
To the valley 

         
below
