Letra de Don't Forget the Coffee Billy Joe

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...
