Water My Flowers Songtext
Soul as empty as a whiskey glass
Bed as cold as it can be
I been waking up alone too long
Lonely ain't got nothin' on me
Heart as hollow as an old dead hickory
The ramblin' man in me is dyin'
Still ain't found the one to settle me down
But it ain't from a lack of trying
No, it ain't from a lack of trying
Bed as cold as it can be
I been waking up alone too long
Lonely ain't got nothin' on me
Heart as hollow as an old dead hickory
The ramblin' man in me is dyin'
Still ain't found the one to settle me down
But it ain't from a lack of trying
No, it ain't from a lack of trying
'Cause every night I close my eyes
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, and what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers
Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I meet my higher power
Who's gonna water my flowers
Sand is slipping through the hourglass
There's a number on my nights and days
I need a brown-eyed baby
Come around and save me
'Cause I can't go on this way
No, I ain't going out this way
Every night I close my eyes
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I meet my higher power
Who's gonna water my flowers
Is it too much to ask
For something that will last
Yeah, long after I'm gone
And I've sang the last of my songs
Who's gonna water my flowers
Every night I close my eyes
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers
Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I'm in my final hour
Who's gonna water my flowers
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, and what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers
Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I meet my higher power
Who's gonna water my flowers
Sand is slipping through the hourglass
There's a number on my nights and days
I need a brown-eyed baby
Come around and save me
'Cause I can't go on this way
No, I ain't going out this way
Every night I close my eyes
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I meet my higher power
Who's gonna water my flowers
Is it too much to ask
For something that will last
Yeah, long after I'm gone
And I've sang the last of my songs
Who's gonna water my flowers
Every night I close my eyes
And pray for something I can hold on to
Where she at, what do I gotta do
Tell me, who's gonna water my flowers
Who's gonna cry my name
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
And I'm in my final hour
Who's gonna water my flowers
