Текст песни Don't Forget The Coffee Billy Joe

(Tom T. Hall)

It's snowed the night before and it had frozen on the ground
We didn't have a car and we lived seven miles from town
And I can hear my daddy's voice so many years ago
Saying don't forget the coffee Billy Joe.

Mama needs her medicine, she's got that real bad cough
We'll get our check on Monday tell ol' Sam we'll pay him all
And you can get your ride when you get to the blacktop road
Don't forget the coffee Billy Joe.

Me and Quentin went back on the hill and we cut some woods
Burnin' in the old warm mornin' stove would sure smell good
Daddy couldn't get work then and I was just a child
And God was on vacation for a while.

Well, if you see Fred you tell him I'll come help him kill them hogs
And ask him if he'd still be interested in my dog
Don't hang around that cool room all day we might get more snow
And don't forget the coffee Billy Joe.

Well, they wonder why there ain't no rabbits left this staying time
To tell the truth I guess we ate 'em all in '49
Was it yesterday or was it over twenty years ago
Don't forget the coffee Billy Joe.

Mama needs her medicine, she's got that real bad cough
We'll get our check on Monday tell ol' Sam we'll pay him all
And you can get your ride when you get to the blacktop road
Don't forget the coffee Billy Joe.

Now pay attention son don't forget the coffee Billy Joe...
