The Platters

The Platters were one of the most successful vocal groups of the early rock and roll era. Their distinctive sound was a bridge between the pre-rock Tin Pan Alley tradition and the burgeoning new genre. The act went through several personnel changes, with the most successful incarnation comprising lead tenor Tony Williams, David Lynch, Paul Robi, Herb Reed, and Zola Taylor. The group had 40 charting singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart between 1955 and 1967, including four no. 1 hits. more »

I love coffee, I love tea, 
I love the Java Jive and it loves me 
Coffee and tea and the java and me, 
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup! 

I love java sweet and hot, 
Whoops, Mister Moto, I'm a coffee pot 
Shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot, 
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup! 

Oh slip me a slug from the wonderful mug 
And I'll cut a rug 'til I'm snug in a jug 
A slice of onion and a raw one, Draw one! 
Waiter, waiter, percolator! 

I love coffee, I love tea, 
I love the Java Jive and it loves me 
Coffee and tea and the java and me, 
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup! 

Boston beans (soy beans) 
I said the little itty-bitty green bean (cabbage n' greens) 
You know that I'm not keen about a bean, 
Unless it is a chile chile bean! (Talk it, boy!) 

I love java sweet and hot, 
Whoops, Mister Moto, I'm a coffee pot (yeah) 
You shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot, 
A cup, a cup, a cup, 'an dat zat bootle! 

Blow me a slug from that wonderful mug 
And I'll cut a rug that's snug in a jug 
Drop a nickel in my pot, Joe, takin' it slow 
Waiter, waiter percolator 

I love coffee, I love tea, 
I love the Java Jive an' it loves me 
Coffee and tea and the java and me 
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup - Boy!
