Is a southbound train gonna take you north
Would you wait for the cart to drag that horse
Does it only take Jesus to believe in God
While we wait for the tail to wag that dog
Life is a well run dry
Waiting to live or die
Watching the best and the worst go by
But how's it ever gonna fill you up
Now that we're drinking from a broken cup
Is all of the money gonna make your rich
When a hobo's sleeping in a cold dark ditch
Is every little flame just lit by moths
Will we burn all the bridges before we cross
Life is a long hard road
Ain't for the fast or slow
One day it's all gonna come and go
How's it ever gonna fill you up
Now that we're drinking from a broken cup
We used up all the rope just to tie that knot
And we spend all the pennies before they drop
The belly of the beast is a hard one to crack
As the crow flies east but he won't fly back
Life is a mean old man
Shaking a worn out hand
Out in a storm trying to hold back the dam
But how's it ever gonna fill you up
Now that we're drinking from a broken cup
And how's it ever gonna make me feel
Now that we're driving with a broken wheel
