[Verse]
AAs I step out one morEning into a small caAfe,
A forty year old waiDtress to Eme these words did sAay:
She said I see sir you?re a loEgger, and not just a common bAum,
'Cause nobody but a loDgger stEirs his coffee with is thAumb.
[Verse]
My lover was a loEgger, there's none like him toAday;
If you'd pour a little whDiskey up on it he Eeat a bale of hAay
My lover came to see Eme twas on one freezing dAay;
He threw his arms around mDe and broke tEhree vertebraeA.
[Verse]
I saw my lover leaving, sauEntering through the sAnow,
Up going gaily homeward aDt fortEy-eight Abelow.
The weather tried to freeze Ehim, it tried its level Abest;
At a thousand degrees below zDero, he butEtoned up his vAest.
[Verse]
It froze clean through to ChEina, it froze to the stars abAove;
At a million degrees below zeDro, it froEze my logger lovAe.
And so I lost my loEver, and to this cafe I cAome,
And here I wait till someone stDirs his cofEfee with his thAumb."
