Coffee Between Cigarettes (in the lounge)

Verse:
Well they turned off the neon at the corner bar;
But I wasn't ready to climb in my car,
So I ambled my way cross the street to the all-night cafe...
Looked at the menu a time or two,
But all I could see were your sweet baby-blues;
I had to order, the man said, if I wanted to stay...
Chorus:
So I'm drinkin' coffee between cigarettes; Shufflin' some cards and hedgin' my bets;
Wonderin' how far a man like med get with someone like you ...
Im drinkin' coffee between cigarettes; Re-playing back all of my wasted regrets;
I should go but its as good as it gets; Drinkin' coffee... and tryin' to forget.
Verse:
There's a black jack on the queen of hearts,
Those two's and those three's are givin' me (fits and) starts...
Each one it follows another ... ain't that always the way?
But the radio's on and the percolator's perkin';
The ceiling fan's fannin'; The aspirin aint workin',
And if I'm not too careful... you might just make my day ...
Chorus:
So I'm drinkin' coffee between cigarettes; Shufflin' some cards and hedgin' my bets;
Wonderin' how far a man like med get with someone like you ...
Im drinkin' coffee between cigarettes; Re-playing back all of my wasted regrets;
Maybe youll come and sit when your working day sets; Drinkin' coffee...
Im drinkin' coffee between cigarettes; Still shufflin' cards, always hedgin' my bets;
Guess I better go cause its as good as it gets; Drinkin' coffee... and tryin' to forget.
