Java Jive

The Manhattan Transfer

I love coffee, i love tea

I love the java jive and it loves me

Coffee and tea and the java and me

A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup (boy!)



I love java, sweet and hot

Whoops mr. moto, i'm a coffee pot

Shoot the pot and i'll pour me a shot

A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup



Oh slip me a slug from the wonderful mug

And i'll cut a rug just snug in a jug

A sliced up onion and a raw one

Draw one -

Waiter, waiter, percolator



I love coffee, i love tea

I love the java jive and it loves me

Coffee and tea and the java and me

A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup



Boston bean (soy beans)

Green bean (cabbage and greens)

I'm not keen about a bean

Unless it is a chili chili bean (boy!)



I love java sweet and hot

Whoops mr. moto i'm a coffee pot (yeah)

Shoot me the pot and i'll pour me a shot

A cup, a cup, a cup (yeah)



Slip me a slug of the wonderful mug

'an i'll cut a rug just as snug in a jug

Drop a nickel in the pot joe

Takin' it slow

Waiter, waiter, percolator



I love coffee, i love tea

I love the java jive and it loves me

Coffee and tea and the java and me

A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, boy!
