Blackberry Wine
Gordon Lightfoot There's a south wind risin' and the moon shines on my window sill I've got a feeling I might walk on over the hill I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some rest And a bottle of your very best Blackberry wine There's a new moon risin' and the wind sings its old song I'm bent but not broken, all I need is my share Pass it on over it's a sin to be sober too long Of a bottle of that very rare Blackberry wine My old gal's got a new dress on five and dime But I'd never cheat her or mistreat her you know As over the mountain I go Try as she will she can't get me to come home on time Blackberry wine I'll be soft spoken All I need is my rest And a bottle of your very best Blackberry wine Now my days are numbered and one more heel's been killed And a bottle of your very fine Blackberry John left me his old recipe in his will Blackberry wine I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some time Blackberry wine, You know that I'm quite dry without you Blackberry wine |
