Lyrics:

Pace the floor
Stop and stare
I drink a cup of coffee
Start to pulling out my hair
I drink 40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
Waiting for you to come home

A quarter to 12 and you're still not in
The way you run around
Is a doggone sin
I drink 40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
Waiting for you to come home

40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee

A quarter to three, I start watching the clock
The phone won't ring
So, I'm waiting for your knock
I drink 40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
Waiting for you to come home

A quarter to four you ain't got home yet
I try to be cool
And smoke a cigarette
I drink 40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
Waiting for you to come home

You knock on the door about a quarter to five
I wanna hug you and kiss you
And say thank God that you're alive
I drank 40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
40 cups of coffee
But I'm glad you finally came home
