Gimme That Wine |
| Well my wife got tired of me running 'round, so she tried to keep me home |
| She hid my clothes |
| She broke my nose |
| But I continued to roam |
| Then she finally hit my weak spot — when she threw my bottle out |
| Well, from the basement to the rooftop, everybody could hear me shout… |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| 'Cause I can’t cut loose without my juice |
| (Got to have my hot Lucy when I go out walking sometimes) |
| One day crossin the avenue, a big car knocked me down |
| I was stretched out tying up traffic and crowds came from blocks around |
| While the police were searchin my pockets, before they sent me to the funeral |
| parlour |
| One of those cops touched my bottle, Jack, I jumped straight up and commenced |
| to hollar |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| I just can’t get well without Muskatel |
| One real dark and dreary night while I was staggering home to bed, y'all |
| A bandit jumped from the shadows and put a blackjack 'side my head |
| That cat took my watch, my ring, my money, and I didn’t even make a sound |
| But when he reached up and got my bottle, you could hear me for blocks around |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Beat my head outta shape, but don’t touch my grape |
| One day my house caught fire while I was laying down sleeping off a nap |
| And when I woke up everything was burning with a pop and a crackle and a snap |
| Well the fireman broke up my TV set and they tore my apartment apart |
| But when he raised that axe to my bottle, Jack, I just cried with all my heart. |
| I said gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| I’ll just have one toast before I roast |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Nothing but the best for me |
| Wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Just gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| I just can’t get well without Muskatel |
| I got to have some of that brew |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) |
| Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) … |
