(Mel Tillis)

Wine, pretty red wine, pretty red wine
Pretty red wine, pretty red wine.

It cost me my family cost me my home
And gave me a dark dirty street to roam
Made me a drifter made me a bum
A looking for a hand out a looking for a chum.

To get wine, pretty red wine, pretty red wine
Pretty red wine, pretty red wine.

--- Instrumental ---

Wine, pretty red wine, pretty red wine
Pretty red wine, pretty red wine.

It's cold in the country cold in the town
It's cold anywhere when you sleep on the ground
I lost all my courage lost all my pride
Where oh Lord can a wino hide.

From wine, pretty red wine, pretty red wine
Pretty red wine, pretty red wine...
