Empty Bottle Lyrics

Though the bottle is empty

I'm full to the brim

With times I've forgotten

I'll bow my head in shame

No trumpets are sounding

No thunderous applause

Only the voice

Thats telling me I've lost

Lord have mercy

Wash my sins through

For all my dice shooting

Got nothin left for you

To momma, I'm sorry

I could've been so much more

But lady luck held me

Like no one did before

I'm here on the streets now

Asking "could you spare a dime?"

But they see my empty bottle and suddenly

No one got the time

But I know God's waiting

He knows better than all

Until my day comes

My empty bottle I'll hold

Until my day comes

My empty bottle I'll hold
