He must have loved his coffee
He went there every day.
Just to have one single cup
Before he went to pay.
He never read the paper
Provided there for free.
He just sat there staring.
At what?...I couldn't see.
This went on for many weeks.
People thought how odd,
He didn't go to a cheaper place
And save a couple of bob.
Then one day I passed the church
And it became quite clear.
Why he'd acted like he did
He married the Cashier.
(I know because I was there. 1955)
