Aint Got Nobody To Grind My Coffee lyrics

Once I had a loving daddy,
Just as good as he could be,
But I haven`t got a daddy,
He`s done gone away from me,
And since he left me behind,
Here`s what`s on my mind, I find:

Ain`t got nobody to grind my coffee in the morning,
Ain`t got nobody to serve my breakfast in bed,
My daddy went away
A week ago today,
How`m I gonna find a-
Nother coffee grinder
Who could do my grinding like my sweet man could?

Ain`t got nobody to light my brand-new percolator,
Ain`t got nobody to heat my oven for me.
When my daddy was around me, he was oh, so good,
He would haul my ashes, even chop my kindling wood.
Ain`t got nobody who would love me like my daddy could,
And grind the coffee for me, I say,
Grind the coffee for me!

Oh, my daddy used to love me pretty, I`ll confess,
And believe me, he was really different from the rest,
Ain`t got no other who could really put me to a test,
And grind the coffee for me, I say,
Grind the coffee for me!
