Artist/Band: Mel Tillis
Lyrics for Song: Sorrow Overtakes the Wine
Lyrics for Album: Who's Julie? [Kapp] [1969]



(Joyce Lavern McCord)



They say my tears come from the bottle

That stands beside me all the time

But I wonder if they know the sorrow

That always overtakes the wine.



I drink to find forgetful valleys

Where I can leave old memories behind

But always just before I reach them

Sorrow overtakes the wine.



--- Instrumental ---



These tears can find me when I'm sober

They're quick to show up anytime

And I always try to drink them under

But sorrow overtakes the wine.



I drink to find forgetful valleys

Where I can leave old memories behind

But always just before I reach them

Sorrow overtakes the wine.



Sorrow overtakes the wine...
