Coffee is only a mild laxative, it's a much stronger diuretic. There's one chemical that causes this: caffeine. When caffeine is metabolized it produces three chemicals; paraxanthine, theobromine, and theophylline. These are the ones that cause the sweet sweet effects of caffeine. Theophylline is the smooth muscle relaxor, and since your bowels are smooth muscles, there you go! There's not much theophylline in caffeine compared to the other compounds, so it's not a very strong laxative feeling. Coffee drinkers feel it more, since they do tend to take in more caffeine than tea drinkers, although if you put back enough black tea, you'll see the effect just as well. Like most chemicals, your tolerance for theophylline increases the more caffeine you metabolize.

Caffeine - a stimulant - kicks up your metabolism, so it gets everything moving. As an aside, Caffeine is also a "potentiator" for analgesics - for instance, if you take a pain reliever with a cup of coffee/tea, the caffeine will maximize it's effectiveness - that's why Excedrin works so well.

Ha! Ha! It was one of the main ideas God's food committee thought was required when He created the "World's Most Perfect Food - Beverage Category!"
... must "get things moving."

because it has caffenine in it and that makes your body wake up and starts moving but when the caffeine runs out you seem to feel like your so tired

Caffeine and mind control. When you think something is going to do something for you, your mind can make it happen.
