Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee (04-13-49)

Down in New Orleans, where everything’s fine
All of them cats is drinkin' that wine
Drinkin' that mess to their delight
And when they get high they start singin' all night
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Pass that bottle to me
Drinkin' that mess to their delight
And when it gets rough, they start fightin' all night
Knockin' down windows and kickin' down doors
Drinkin' by the gallons and screamin' for more
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Pass that bottle to me
Hoy, hoy
(Wine, wine, wine) Elderberry
(Wine, wine, wine) Or cherry
(Wine, wine, wine) Blackberry
(Wine, wine, wine) Half an' half
(Wine, wine, wine) Oh
Pass that bottle to me
Look out
Drink that mess
Put that bottle down, rip
Give ol' papa a little taste
Sweet Lucy
If you wanna get along in some strange town
Buy some wine an' pass it around
All of them cats will think you fine
All of them cats, they love sweet wine
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Pass that bottle to me
I’ve got a nickel and you got a dime
Let’s get together and buy some wine
Some by the fifths, some by the quart
When you buy blackberry, you’re doing things smart
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine (Wine)
Give that bottle to me
Hoy hoy hoy
(Wine, wine, wine) Elderberry
(Wine, wine, wine) Sweet Lucy
(Wine, wine, wine) Nash Grace
(Wine, wine, wine) Got me down
Give that bottle to me
