Two More Bottles of Wine

(Delbert McClinton)



We came out west together with a common desire

The fever we had might've set the west coast on fire

Two months later got a troublein' mind

Oh, my baby moved out and left me behind.

But it's all right 'cause it's midnight

And I got two more bottles of wine.



The way he left sure turned my head around

Seemed like overnight he just up and put me down

Well, ain't gonna let it bother me today

I've been a workin' and I'm too tired anyway.

But it's all right 'cause it's midnight

And I got two more bottles of wine.



Well, I'm sixteen hundred miles from the people I know

I've been doin' all I can but opportunity sure comes slow

Well, I'd be in the sun all day

But I'm sweepin' out a warehouse in West LA.

But it's all right 'cause it's midnight

And I got two more bottles of wine.

Yes, it's all right 'cause it's midnight

And I got two more bottles of wine.



Yes, it's all right 'cause it's midnight
