Black Caffeine

I like it black, just black as night It keeps me up, it keeps me tight It don’t matter the size of the cup Just as long as you fill it up With black caffeine Keeps me lean You can hear me scream Give me black caffeine Oh I’ve got a monkey sittin on my back And wouldn’t you know he likes it black? Don’t need no cream, no nicotine All that monkey need is the black caffeine More black caffeine It keeps me lean You can hear him scream Give me black caffeine Give me black caffeine I’m sound of body, I’m sound of mind Until it comes to my coffee time Don’t stand in my way, don’t hold me back Just keep it hot and keep it black Good black caffeine It keeps me lean You can hear me scream Give me black caffeine The devil said, I want your soul I want your silver, I need your gold Well you can have anything I’ve got Don’t let him in my coffee pot Full of black caffeine It keeps me lean Can you hear me scream? Give me black caffeine More black caffeine It keeps me lean Can you hear me scream? More black caffeine More black caffeine Yeah, black caffeine --- Black Caffeine - Rodney Crowell and Emmylou Harris
