(Bob Marley, 1962)

One cup of coffee, then I´ll go;
Though I just dropped by to let you know
That I´m leaving you tomorrow;
I´ll cause you no more sorrow:
One cup of coffee, then I´ll go.

I brought the money like the lawyer said to do,
But it won´t replace the ´eartache I caused you;
It won´t take the place of lovin´ you, I know,
So one cup of coffee, then I´ll go.

Tell the kids I came last night
And kissed them while they slept;
Make my coffee sweet and warm
Just the way you used to lie in my arms.

I brought the money like the lawyer said to do,
But it won´t replace the ´eartache I caused you;
It won´t take the place of lovin´ you, I know,

So one cup of coffee, then I´ll go;
One cup of coffee, then I´ll go;
One cup of coffee, then I´ll go.
