They Call It Coffee
By Lisa Noe

Get yourself a cup of joe
You can take it kinda slow
No matter what you do
You can drink the scalding brew
They call it coffee

With cream and sugar black or not
Drink yourself a cup or a pot
Caffeine will keep you going
Beats coke or tea don’t you know it
They call it coffee

Don’t take a gulp take a sip
Then give your cookie a little dip
The taste will blend
That you can depend
They call it coffee.
