Wonderful Wino |
| L.A. in the summer of '69 |
| I went downtown and bought me some wine |
| Oh, I drank it down under the table |
| I said: watch me now |
| I’m gonna eat the label |
| Well I’m a wino man |
| Don’t you know I am? |
| 36 — 24, hips about 30 |
| I seen a fine lady |
| And I started talkin' dirty |
| Boy, she looked over at me |
| And she raised her thumb |
| She said: «Jam down the road |
| You bum, bum, bum, bum» |
| I’m a wino man |
| Don’t you know I am? |
| I went to the country |
| And while I was gone |
| I lost control of my body functions |
| On the road ahead at the ladies front lawn |
| I’m so ashamed |
| But I’m a wino man |
| I can’t help myself |
| I’ve been drinkin' all night |
| Till my eyes got red |
| Stumbled on the gutter |
| And busted my head |
| Bugs in my zoot suit |
| Been scratchin' like a dog |
| I can’t stand no water |
| And I stink like a hog |
| Give me a five dollar bill |
| And an overcoat too |
| Give me a five dollar bill |
| And an overcoat too |
| A five dollar bill and an overcoat too |
| A five dollar bill and a floor shine shoe |
