Coffee Blues
Mississippi John Hurt

Spoken:
This is the “Coffee Blues”, I likes a certain brand
- Maxwell’s House - it’s good till the last drop,
just like it says on the can. I used to have a girl
cookin’ a good Maxwell House. She moved away.
Some said to Memphis and some said to Leland,
but I found her. I wanted her to cook me some
good Maxwell’s House. You understand,
if I can get me just a spoonful of Maxwell’s House,
do me much good as two or three cups this other coffee)

I’ve got to go to Memphis, bring her back to Leland
I wanna see my baby ‘bout a lovin’ spoonful, my lovin’ spoonful
Well, I’m just got to have my lovin’

(spoken: I found her)

Good mornin’, baby, how you do this mornin’?
Well, please, ma’am, just a lovin’ spoon,
just a lovin’ spoonful
I declare, I got to have my lovin’ spoonful

My baby packed her suitcase and she went away
I couldn’t let her stay for my lovin’,
my lovin’ spoonful
Well, I’m just got to have my lovin’

Good mornin’, baby, how you do this mornin’?
Well, please, ma’am, just a lovin’ spoon,
just a lovin’ spoonful
I declare, I got to have my lovin’ spoonful

Well, the preacher in the pulpit, jumpin’ up and down
He laid his bible down for his lovin’
(spoken: Ain’t Maxwell House all right?)
Well, I’m just got to have my lovin’
