It can't be said I'm an early birdIt's ten o'clock before I say a wordBaby, I can never tell How do you sleep so well?You keep telling me to live a lie To go to bed before the daylightBut then you wake up for the sunrise You know you don't gotta pretendBaby, now and then, don't you just wanna wake upDark as the lake,smelling like the bonfire lost in the hazeIf you're drunk on life,babe, I think it's greatBut while in this world,I think I'll take my whiskey and leaveMy coffee black and my bed at threeYou're too sweet for meYou're too sweet for meMy whiskey and youMy coffee black and my bedded treeYou're too sweet for meYou're too sweet for meI ain't low,I ain't true,and the ground's where I goI work late, well I'm free from the phoneAnd the job gets done,but you're worrisome I know, but who wants to live forever gay?You treat your mouth as if it's heaven's gateThe rest of you,like you're the TSAI wish I could go aloneBabe, don't get me wrongYou know you're bright as the morningSoft as the rainPretty as a vineSweet as a grapeYou can sit in a barrelBaby, I'll waitUntil that dayI'd rather take my whiskeyI take my whiskey,my coffee black and my bed at threeYou're too sweet for me,you're too sweet for me
