Bottle Of Wine:Fireballs.
Top of the charts in '63.
(This was Jimmy Gilmer's group, of
Sugar Shack fame.)

CHORUS:
D                 
Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine,
                          A   D  
When you gonna let me get so..ber?
D
Leave me alone, let me go home,
                         A  D 
Let me go home and start o..ver.

#1.
D         A          G         D
Ramblin' around this dirty old town,
D           A           D 
singin' for nickles and dimes.
D             A        G        D
Times gettin' rough, I aint got enough,
D               A         D
To get a little bottle of wine.

CHORUS:

#2.
D           A     G          D
Pains in my head, bugs in my bed,
D            A             D 
pants are so old that they shine.
D          A              G        D
Out on the street, I tell people I meet,
   D      A           D
To buy me a bottle of wine.

CHORUS:

#3.
D             A       G            D
Preacher will preach, teacher will teach,
D          A          D
Miner will dig in the mine.
D          A     G           D
I ride the rods, trusting in God,
D          A         D
hugging my bottle of wine.

CHORUS:(x3)

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
