Cigarettes And Coffee

Lyrics: Butler, Thomas, Walker
Music: Butler, Thomas, Walker

Recorded by the Jerry Garcia Band for the soundtrack of the film "Smoke"

It's early in the morning
About a quarter to three
And I'm sittin' here
Talking with my baby
Over cigarettes and coffee
Tell you I don't feel so satisfied
Honey since I've met you
Baby since I met you

All the ladies that I've been around
All the good looking girls that I met
They just don't seem to fit in
Not at this particular time
But it seems so natural darlin'
That you and I are here
Just talkin' over cigarettes
And drinkin' coffee

Oh my heart cries out
At last I've found you
Honey won't you let me
Build my whole life around you

Oh, how complete, how complete
My whole life would be
If you would take me under consideration
Walk down this aisle with me
Oh I would love it I would just love it darlin'

I say it's so early in the mornin'
It's a quarter to three
We're just sittin' here
Talkin over cigarettes
And drinkin' coffee
Oh drinkin' coffee
And I'd like to show you
I know nothin'could

Since I met you darlin'
Honey since I met you, since I met you baby
I'd love to have another
Oh have another drink of coffee
Have another drink of coffee
Have another drink of coffee
Please darlin' help me smoke
Please help me smoke
Please help me smoke
Help me smoke
Just one more cigarette
I want to smoke one more cigarette with you baby
Smoking cigarettes
Drinking coffee baby
Coffee baby
It's so early in the mornin' baby
It's so early in the mornin' baby
