Artist/Band: Bill Anderson
Lyrics for Song: Drinking from My Saucers
Lyrics for Album: By Request [Varese] [2000]



(Mike Johnson)



I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has overflowed

You know I never did make my fortune

And I guess it's a little late now.



But I never did worry about that much

No, shoot I was happy anyhow 'cause you see

As I have journeyed down life's road

I have reaped a lot more than I've sowed.



And I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has over flowed.

No, I'm not a man of riches

No sir, and sometimes the going gets kinda' rough

But I got me a good family an old horse and a dog

They all love me, well, that makes me rich enough.



I thank the Lord for all these

Bless the mercies he has bestowed

I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has overflowed.



Oh, I've had lots of times when

It seemed everything went wrong

I could feel my faith get well just a little bit thin

But the rain would stop and dark clouds would roll away

The sun would come shining right back down in my life again.



So Lord, don't let me gripe too much

About the rough row I've hoed

'Cause I'm drinking from my saucer

My cup has overflowed.

I'm drinking from my saucer

My cup has overflowed.



And now Lord if you can just give me the strength I need

And the courage when that old road gets steep and rough

I'll not ask for any other blessing

'Cause I have been blessed more than enough



And Lord, don't ever let me get so busy

That I can't help another with his load

And I just keep on drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has surely overflowed

I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has overflowed.



Thanks Lord...
