frank zappa - wonderful wino [road tapes, venue #3] lyrics
bringing in the sheaves
bringing in the sheaves
we shall come rejoicing
bringing in the sheaves
l.a. in the summer of ’69
i went downtown and bought some wine
wasted my head on three quarts of juice
now the grapes won’t turn me loose
i’m a wino man
don’t you know i am?
36, 24, hips about 30
(36, 24, hips about 30)
seen a fine lady and i started talkin’ dirty
(i’ve seen a fine lady and i started talkin’ dirty)
she looked at me and raised the thumb
(thumb, yeah)
said: “jam down the road, you funky–ss bum”
i’m a wino man
don’t you know i am?
i, i went to the country
and while i was gone
a roller-headed lady
caught me weedling on her lawn
i am so ashamed, but i’m a wino man
and i can’t help myself
help me somebody!
i’m a wino man
don’t you know i am?
my saxophone playing
and my wino career are in a slump
’cause i find myself now living
in a cardboard refrigerator box down by the houston dump
and i’m so ashamed . .
whooaaah!
you know, drinkin’ all night till my eyes are all red
crashed in the gutter, got bugs in my head
bugs in my coat, scratchin’ like a dog
can’t stand water, and i stink like a hog
give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks
and a hot meal
(fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks and a hot meal)
give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks
and a hot meal
(fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks and a hot meal)
fi-i-i-ive . .
