Give it one more scoop
That's gonna get me through
Coffee time in the morning light
The best part of waking is you
She takes it black
She's simple like that
Our dog between
Her blanketed knees
He's always liked you
More than me
He must see what I see
And I see you
And I see me
Underneath the white oak tree
And I'll make time
When you need mine
Of all you do and say
Babe it's the little things
And I can give you romance
But darling I don't dance
The way you move is gabardine smooth
And I'm a Goodwill pair of sweatpants
And when we're done with our chores
We'll have a beer on the porch
We'll start each day and end it the same
With each other and nothing more
Is there anything more?
And I see you
And I see me
Underneath the white oak tree
And I'll make time
When you need mine
Of all you do and say
Babe it's the little things
Always thought I'd be the guy
Who liked to live alone
On the road, at the bar
Just a rolling stone
I've known others and I'm grateful
For the love they've shown
Cause they're the names
Of the streets I took
When I went home
Now I'm writing at the table
That we eat upon
Little phrases bout the wayses
That you turn me on
I see it now
I'm learning how
To finally focus on
Little Things like making coffee
When the morning comes
And I see you
And I see me
Underneath the white oak tree
And I'll make time
When you need mine
Of all you do and say
Babe it's the little things
She takes it black
She's simple like that
