Little Ole Wine Drinker Me

(Hank Mills - Dick Jennings)



I'm praying for a rain in California

So the grapes can grow and they can make more wine

And I'm sitting in a honky in Chicago

With a broken heart and a woman on my mind.



I'll ask the man behind the bar for the jukebox

And the music takes me back to Tennessee

And when they ask who's the fool in the corner, crying

I'll say, little old wine drinker, me.

Yeah, I came here last week from down in Nashville

'Cause my baby left for Florida on a train

I thought I'd get a job and just forget her

But in Chicago a broken heart is still the same.



I'll ask the man behind the bar for the jukebox

And the music takes me back to Tennessee

And when they ask who's the fool in the corner, crying

I'll say, little old wine drinker, me.



I say a little ole wine drinker me...
