I could be your lover And you could be my queen I could fill the spaces In between I could lay beside you Under a southern sky But if you said you love me That's a lie And my heart is tired of aching Oh it's tired of breaking oh And the only thing that I've got Is this whiskey in my cup Well I quit my schoolin' To get a job But I never stopped dreamin' Of being a star I'm not'n like my mother Well ain't that a shame I'm nothing like my father I just got his name And my heart is tired of aching Oh it's tired of breaking oh And the only thing that I've got Is this whiskey in my cup Oh and ahaa ahaa Ahaa I'm going down Yeah but ahaa ahaa Ahaa I'm looking up Cause the only thing that I need, Lord Is this whiskey in my cup Oh and ahaa ahaa Ahaa I'm going down Yeah but ahaa ahaa Ahaa I'm looking up Cause the only thing that I've got Is this whiskey in my Only thing that I've got Is this whiskey in my Only thing that I've got, oh Is this whiskey in my cup
