Brother, my cup is empty
[00:01.95] And I haven't got a penny
[00:04.35] For to buy no more whiskey
[00:07.00] I have to go home
[00:08.86] Oh brother, my cup is empty
[00:10.99] And I haven't got a penny
[00:13.64] For to buy no more whiskey
[00:16.04] I have to go home
[00:17.90] I am the captain of my pain
[00:20.56] Tis the bit, the bridle
[00:21.89] The trashing cane
[00:23.22] The stirrup, the harness
[00:24.55] And the whipping mane
[00:25.61] The pickled eye
[00:26.68] And the shrinking brain
[00:27.74] Brother, buy me one more drink
[00:29.86] I'll explain the nature of my pain
[00:32.26] Yes, let me tell you once again
[00:34.38] I am the captain of my pain
[00:37.31] Brother, my cup is empty
[00:39.18] And I haven't got a penny
[00:41.56] For to buy no more whiskey
[00:43.96] I have to go home
[00:46.35] I cannot blame it all on her
[00:48.47] To blame her all would be a lie
[00:50.86] For many a night I lay awake
[00:52.99] And wished that I could watch her die
[00:55.38] To see her accusing finger spurt
[00:58.04] To see flies swarm her hateful eye
[01:00.43] To watch her groaning in the dirt
[01:02.55] To see her clicking tongue crack dry
[01:04.94] Brother, buy me one more drink
[01:07.36] One more drink and then goodbye
[01:09.74] And do not mock me when I say
[01:12.13] Let's drink one more before I die
[01:14.25] Brother, my cup is empty
[01:16.91] And I haven't got a penny
[01:18.50] For to buy no more whiskey
[01:20.91] I have to go home
[01:23.32] I've been sliding down on rainbows
[01:25.70] I've been swinging from the stars
[01:27.83] Now this wretch in beggars clothing
[01:30.22] Bangs his cup across the bars
[01:32.35] Look, this cup of mine is empty!
[01:34.74] Seems I've misplaced my desires
[01:36.86] Seems I'm sweeping up the ashes
[01:39.78] Of all my former fires
[01:41.91] So brother, be a brother
[01:44.30] And fill this tiny cup of mine
[01:46.69] And please, sir, make it whiskey
[01:48.81] I have no head for wine
[01:51.21] Brother, my cup is empty
[01:53.87] And I haven't got a penny
[01:56.25] For to buy no more whiskey
[01:58.64] I have to go home
[02:00.77] Brother, my cup is empty
[02:03.16] And I haven't got a penny
[02:05.55] For to buy no more whiskey
[02:08.22] I have to go home
[02:10.08] I counted up my blessings
[02:12.22] And I counted only one
[02:14.86] One tiny little blessing
[02:16.99] And now that blessings gone
[02:19.11] So buy me one more drink, my brother
[02:21.24] Then I'm taking to the road
[02:23.36] Yes, I'm taking to the rain
[02:25.75] And I'm taking to the snow
[02:28.41] O my friend, my only brother
[02:30.54] Do not let the party grieve
[02:32.92] So throw a dollar on the bar
[02:35.05] Now kiss my ass and leave
[02:37.71] Brother, my cup is empty
[02:40.37] And I haven't got a penny
[02:42.50] For to buy no more whiskey
[02:44.89] I have to go home
[02:48.08] Brother, my cup is empty
[02:49.67] And I haven't got a penny
[02:51.80] For to buy no more whiskey
[02:55.79] I have to go home
