Western Centuries In My Cups
[Verse 1]
I'm on my knees
Hear me beggin' to my darlin', please
I can change it if you just don't leave
Me here this way
As she turns her head
And all I hear from her are words that said
I thought you knew it, that our love was dead
She slams the door
[Chorus]
I've been savin' this up
Won't quit ‘til I'm done
‘Til my race is run and I'm in my cups
[Verse 2]
Ain't this a trip
My nose was open, now I'm on my lips
I drink each evening tryin' to forget
The way we were
She seems just fine
A new man, just a matter of time
How I wish that she could still be mine
I am so low down
[Chorus]
I've been savin' this up
Won't quit ‘til I'm done
‘Til my race is run and I'm in my cups
[Verse 3]
I'm drunk as hell
What's that smell? I guess it's me, oh well
I've gone too far as far as I can tell
I can't turn back now
I can't stand the pain
No matter what I do it's still the same
And I'm wanderin' in the pourin' rain
Oh goodbye, cruel world
[Chorus]
I've been savin' this up
Won't quit ‘til I'm done
‘Til my race is run and I'm in my cups
