Blood, Sweat & Tears - Gimme That Wine Live

Текст песни

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) …
