Your breath is sweet
Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky
Your back is straight, your hair is smooth
On the pillow where you lie
I don't sense affection
Nor no gratitude or love
Your loyalty is not to me but to the stars above
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee before I go
To the valley below
Your daddy, he's an outlaw
And a wanderer by trade
He'll teach you how to pick an' choose
And how to throw the blade
He oversees his kingdom
Where no stranger does intrude
His voice it trembles as he calls out
For another plate of food
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee before I go
To the valley below
Your sister sees the future
Like your momma and yourself
She never learned to read or write
There's no books upon her shelf
And her pleasure knows no limits
Her voice is like a meadow lark
But her heart is like an ocean
So mysterious and dark
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee before I go
To the valley below
Thank you
