I woke up this morning with a awful aching head
ย
I woke up this morning with a awful aching head
ย
My new man had left me, just a room and a empty bed
ย
Bought me a coffee grinder, that's the best one I could find
Bought me a coffee grinder, that's the best one I could find
ย
Oh, he could grind my coffee, 'cause he had a brand-new grind
ย
He's a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong
ย
He's a deep sea diver with a stroke that can't go wrong
ย
He can stay at the bottom and his wind holds out so long
ย
He knows how to thrill me and he thrills me night and day
ย
Oh, he knows how to thrill me, he thrills me night and day
ย
He's got a new way of loving, almost takes my breath away
ย
Lord, he's got that sweet somethin' and I told my girlfriend Lou
ย
He's got that sweet somethin' and I told my girlfriend Lou
ย
From the way he's raving, he must have gone and tried it too
