Black coffee (ooh) freshly ground and fully prepared
Black coffee, mmm that's where it's at
Way back you all know since I don't know when

You see my skin is white but my soul is black
And my hot black coffee, that's where it's at

Black tea, it's as black as it can be
Black tea (can't compare with me) that's right
Black tea (ooh) it's as good as, good as it can possibly be
But it's a cup of black coffee that a working man needs and I wanna tell ya
Back in America, well it's the land of the free
You can get anything you want as long as you've got that do re me
Well I've travelled far and I work like a slave
Now I'm independent, and you know I get laid
I got me a job and I built me a place
I get that little black coffee, oh how good it tastes
I said a dime is all it costs back in the States
For a cup of black coffee oh how good it tastes
(Black coffee) Alright
