Coffee Lyrics by Ledisi

Pieces of Me

2011

[Chorus]
Gotta serve it to me hot
Just like I like my coffee
It's keepin' me from sleepin' on my job
Just like I like my coffee
Serve it to me tall, strong and dark
Just like I like my coffee
That's the way I like my man, that's how you gotta love me
That's the way I like my coffee

[Verse 1]
It's like the way you wake me up, like Folgers in my cup
You get me all excited, I'm thinkin' 'bout how you do your
Slow steady serve, the flavor I prefer
Go back to where we were, I always remember
Way you brew your love, I can't get enough
I think that I'm in love, baby, let me get a refill
Stimulate my mind, you keep me on my grind
I'm so glad you're mine, I think that I'm addicted

[Chorus]
Gotta serve it to me hot
(Serve it to me hot)
Just like I like my coffee
It's keepin' me from sleepin' on my job
(Keepin' me from sleepin' on my job)
Just like I like my coffee
Serve it to me tall, strong and dark
Just like I like my coffee
That's the way I like my man, that's how you gotta love me
That's the way I like my coffee

[Verse 2]
You see it on my face, my heart about to race
I'm tryna keep the peace, make me wanna get a taste of
That dark premium, right on the spot
Good to the last drop, how you keep it hot
Is a mystery, but it's right for me
I need it in the mornin', early crack of dawn and
Gets me goin', so keep it flowin'
And make no mistake, no debate, need that coffee break

[Chorus]
Gotta serve it to me hot
Just like I like my coffee
(Just like I like my coffee)
It's keepin' me from sleepin' on my job
Just like I like my coffee
(Keep me on it, babe)
Serve it to me tall, strong and dark
Just like I like my coffee
That's the way I like my man, that's how you gotta love me
That's the way I like my coffee

[Bridge]
Oh-oh, just keep it brewing
Sooner or later I'ma need that fix
You know, just what you're doing
Liking brown sugar all up in my mix
First round, at the table, put it down
On the counter, yeah, it's goin' down
Like that black, as a matter of fact
Nah, I keep it clean, but you know what I mean

[Chorus]
Gotta serve it to me hot
Just like I like my coffee
(Just like I like my coffee)
It's keepin' me from sleepin' on my job
Just like I like my coffee
Serve it to me tall, strong and dark
Just like I like my coffee
That's the way I like my man, that's how you gotta love me
That's the way I like my coffee

[Outro]
Oh, oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, serve it to me like I like, yeah
Hey, baby, just like I like my coffee, oh
