Using the "Feeling Groovy - Definitive version" as the template, "May I Have a Talk with You" by Howlin' Wolf comes after "Mess of Blues" at the 15:22 mark: "I like my coffee in the morning baby, and I'm crazy about my tea at night." Then they go into "Honey Bee," and they return to "May I Have a Talk with You" at the 16:38 mark: "I like my coffee in the morning and I'm crazy, crazy, crazy about my tea at night. I like my coffee in the morning, I want no sugar, all I want you to do is treat me right." "Lend Me Your Love" comes at the 21:35 mark: "You got a mortgage on my love, and know there really is no doubt. You got a mortgage on my love, I know there really, really, really is no doubt. When I make up my mind"  . Then back into "woman, woman, woman, way down inside" portion of Whole Lotta Love.

The song that you posted does have that section pretty acurately You know I like my coffee sweet in the morning
and I'm crazy about my tea at night
Yeah I like my coffee sweet in the morning little girl
and I'm crazy about my tea at night
You know you'd come out a little better now baby
All I want you to do is treat me rightBut these lyrics appeared all the way back in 1937 in a release from Sonny Boy Williamson called 'Sugar Mama Blues' i Like My Coffee Sweet In The Mornin'
you Know, An I'm Crazy 'bout My Tea At Night
an I Like My Coffee Sweet In The Mornin'
you Know, An I'm Crazy 'bout My Tea At Night
don't Give Me My Sugar Three Times A Day
oh, Lord, Then I An Feel Right.Some times when Plant is singing these sections he mentions "Sugar Mama" as the person that he is talking to, or about. So given the fact that these lyrics are in a number of songs by a number of people and the fact that Plant sometimes mentions 'Sugar Mama' by name, I am going to call this song 'Sugar Mama Blues' by Sonny Boy Williamson. It is damn hard with these blues classics to nail down who said what first since they were constantly using each others lyrics. Also, Plant adlibbed them so much that it is even muddier. For the database though, I need to try to establish some consistency so I have to make some decisions sometimes where things aren't 100% clear. BTW, I just realized that there were 2 Sonny Boy Williamson's. 'Sugar Mama' is from the first one and 'Eyesight to the Blind' is from the second one.

I'll split the difference with you actually.  Sonny Boy Williamson I seems to be the earliest coffee tea song guy, but Zeppelin I think is singing Howlin Wolf's take on Sonny Boy's song. Sugar Mama
by Chester Burnett Howlin' Wolf
I want you to tell me sugar mama, where in the world you get your sugar from
I want you to tell me sugar mama, where in the world you get your sugar from
Well you must of got it down in Louisiana, people on your daddy's sugar farm
I like my coffee sweet in the mornin', sugar mama you know I'm crazy 'bout my tea at night
I like my coffee sweet in the mornin', sugar mama you know I'm crazy 'bout my tea at night
Well if I can't get my sugar three times a day, oh lord I don't feel rightBoth stanzas of that song have been sung by Robert during medley's For example the first one is sung on Mar 6th 1971 and the second stanza was sung on April 1st 1971. So I am going to credit the song to Sonny Boy, but make Howlin Wolf the popularizer and use his lyrics because that is the version that Zeppelin seems to be most influenced by. I just don't think that we are going to find a more accurate way to map out these lyrics.
