my coffee cup

every morning it greets me

there's a smile on my face

it's there to meet me

I can't wait for the taste

it fills my heart with wonder

when I'm waking up

my coffee cup

I grind the beans each morning

no Folgers for me

I don't want no decaf

I need to be awake to see

the milk go in

I can never get enough

of my coffee cup

my coffee cup

          some people, they drink water

          some people, they drink tea

          but I don't think about them

          coffee's good enough for me

give me lots of caffeine

a dash of half and half

a nice glass of orange juice?

don't make me laugh!

it helps me be the big dog

when I'm feeling like a pup

it's my coffee cup

my coffee cup

when my life is over

when my time is near

when I leave this life

and get out of here

I'll ask mister Saint Peter

won't you fill me up?

I'm talking 'bout 

my coffee cup
