Java Joe & Me

Liner Notes
They say to write what you know. This song is for my one true love (the coffee, not the barista; that's a played out cliche)
Lyrics
Another day another pot I wish I could I just can't stop Make myself another cup today
When every day is moving slow I know right where I can go Where I can take myself away
Sometimes I might drink alone, A moment I can call my own No matter the cost I'm glad to pay
Every barista knows my name, Even if my order ain't the same They know what it takes to make my day
Java joe and me we're as happy as can be I might just love you more than beer Java joe and me like sugar and cream I've always got a hot cup of you near
No matter what the roast I'm gonna raise a toast So you and I can grind through the day
One lump or two Almost any mug will do I'm always happy when java comes to stay
A cup when I wake up A mug when I'm at work a new pour every hour is my way
I'll make it myself And I don't mind having help From my friends who know my name at the café
Java joe and me, we're as paired as paired can be I just hope the world knows how I feel Java joe and me, you can keep your plain old tea The love we have between us is quite real
Oh, java joe I don't know where I'd be without you Oh, Java joe together there's nothing we can't do Please don't ever leave I'll continue to believe That java joe is my one and only brew
Java joe and me we're as happy as can be I might just love you more than beer Java joe and me like sugar and cream I've always got a hot cup of you near

Such a fun song. I love the line “I might just love you more than beer!” This has a kind of Irish folk feel to it that almost reminds me of The Pogues or Dropkick Murphys. Love it!
This is a blast, bouncy and catchy. Doesn't slip into novelty song territory, just a person who really loves coffee and wants to tell the world. Could definitely see a full band with this one.
