[Verse 1 – lead] After the pub when the lights were low We found a diner where the regulars go Black coffee steaming while the laughter ran Eating fried food at the hour Where the night forgets its plan [Verse 1 – background] (where the night forgets its plan) [Chorus – all] Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still sharing what we know! (what we know!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) Now we sing it soft and slow! Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still talking through the night! (through the night!) Even in the quiet We keep the chorus right! (chorus right!) [Verse 2 – lead] Ranch on potatoes in a way not meant Salt on the toast just to say we’re bent Showing how a task is done with flair Though the motion makes no sense Outside of that booth and chair [Verse 2 – background] (outside of that booth and chair) [Chorus – all] Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still sharing what we know! (what we know!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) Now we sing it soft and slow! Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still talking through the night! (through the night!) Even in the quiet We keep the chorus right! (chorus right!) [Bridge – chant, gentle but certain, printed fully four times] Good ol’ time! (good ol’ time!) Fellas round the table! (round the table!) Good ol’ time! (good ol’ time!) Sing as long as we’re able! (we’re able!) Good ol’ time! (good ol’ time!) Coffee and a tune! (and a tune!) Good ol’ time! (good ol’ time!) Night fades too soon! (too soon!) [Chorus – all] Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still sharing what we know! (what we know!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) Now we sing it soft and slow! Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still talking through the night! (through the night!) Even in the quiet We keep the chorus right! (chorus right!) [Final Chorus – printed fully] Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still sharing what we know! (what we know!) He said “I’m Dail Milton!” (Milton!) Now we sing it soft and slow! Still singing over coffee! (over coffee!) Still talking through the night! (through the night!) Nothing grand about it But somehow it feels right! (feels right!)
