Current song lyrics
Brother, my cup is empty<br />And I haven?t got a penny<br />For to buy no more whiskey<br />I have to go home<br /><br /><br />I am the captain of my pain<br />Tis the bit, the bridle,<br />The trashing cane<br />The stirrup, the harness<br />The whipping mane<br />The pickled eye<br />The shrinking brain<br />O brother, buy me one more drink<br />I?ll explain the nature of my pain<br />Yes, let me tell you once again<br />I am the captain of my pain<br /><br /><br />O brother, my cup is empty<br />And I haven?t got a penny<br />For to buy no more whiskey<br />I have to go home<br /><br /><br />I cannot blame it all on her<br />To blame her all would be a lie<br />For many a night I lay awake<br />And wished that I could watch her die<br />To see her accusing finger spurt<br />To see flies swarm her hateful eye<br />To watch her groaning in the dirt<br />To see her clicking tongue crack dry<br />O brother, buy me one more drink<br />One more drink and then goodbye<br />And do not mock me when I say<br />Let?s drink one more before I die<br /><br /><br />O brother, my cup is empty<br />And I haven?t got a penny<br />For to buy no more whiskey<br />I have to go home<br /><br /><br />Well I?ve been sliding down on rainbows<br />Well I?ve been swinging from the stars<br />Now this wretch in beggars clothing<br />Bangs his cup across the bars<br />Look, this cup of mine is empty!<br />Seems I?ve misplaced my desires<br />Seems I?m sweeping up the ashes<br />Of all my former fires<br />So brother, be a brother<br />And fill this tiny cup of mine<br />And please, sir, make it whiskey<br />For I have no head for wine<br /><br /><br />O brother, my cup is empty<br />And I haven?t got a penny<br />For to buy no more whiskey<br />I have to go home<br /><br /><br />I counted up my blessings<br />And counted only one<br />One tiny little blessing<br />And now that blessings gone<br />So buy me one more drink, my brother<br />Then I?m taking to the road<br />Yes, I?m taking to the rain<br />I?m taking to the snow<br />O my friend, my only brother<br />Do not let the party grieve<br />So throw a dollar onto the bar<br />Now kiss my as* and leave<br /><br /><br />O brother, my cup is empty<br />And I haven?t got a penny<br />For to buy no more whiskey<br />I have to go home
