Americano My Tops

Coffee's been a favorite for me
most of my life wherever I've been
in the majority of that time
white with sugar sweet since eighteen

Now you've such a range of coffee
Vanilla, Cappuccino, Latte or black
it really gets to confusing state
for so many on the coffee rack

Now in recent months stopped sugar
so now love Americano ever so much
just add little hot milk to taste
for me superb with special touch

Love to have something to eat
along with my coffee real strong
fruit scone and jam is so good
with that pair you can't go wrong

So on my way to coffee shop
to get my favorite Americano
such a taste really so smooth
down it goes just nice and slow!
