Coffee Song - Frank Sinatra

The Coffee Song (They've Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in Brazil)
Written by: Bob Hilliard, Richard Miles

Coffee Song Lyrics

Way down among Brazilians
Coffee beans grow by the billions
So they've got to find those extra cups to fill
They've got an awful lotta coffee in Brazil

You can't get cherry soda
'cause they've got to sell the quota
And no way things are I guess they never will
They've got a zillion tons of coffee in Brazil

No tea or tomato juice
You'll see no potato juice
'cause the planters down in Santos all say "No, no, no"

A politician's daughter
Was accused of drinkin' water
And was fined a great big fifty dollar bill
They've got an awful lotta coffee in Brazil

And when their ham and eggs need savor
Coffee ketchup gives 'em flavor
Coffee pickles way outsell the dill
Why, they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil

No tea, or tomato juice
You'll see no potato juice
Cause the planters down in Santos all say "No, no, no"

So you'll add to the local color
Serving coffee with a cruller
Dunkin' doesn't take a lot of skill
They've got an awful lotta coffee

Man, they got a gang of coffee in Brazil
