(FIDDLE & MANDOLIN INTRO)
down in the hills of the Ozarks
there are some women that`ll have your heart
all wrapped up in chains it`s a shame
if you make the bad mistake of telling them
the crazy things you tell them
when you`re high on that homemade wine
`cause when you`re high on that homemade wine
every woman will sure look fine
half standin` in my sleep
I`m lookin` at my feet
and wonderin` where do I go from here
I`ve been walkin` for an hour
tryin` to find my shower
so my head can`t be on right yet
it`s that wine and I`ll take all bets
it`s that wine that`s gettin` to my head
(FIDDLE & MANDOLIN DITTY)
(GUITAR SOLO)
made me a fifty gallon barrel
connected with an air hose
and I had me a real good rig
went on a binge for one week
got to where I couldn`t speak
to anyone oh I was high
it`s that wine and I`ll tell no lies
take that wine if you want to get higher, higher
it`s that wine and I`ll tell you no lies
take that wine if you want to get high
