Lyric Wonderful Wino

L.A. in the summer of 69
I went downtown and bought me some wine
Oh, I drank it down under the table
I said: watch me now,
I m gonna eat the label
Well I m a wino man,
Don t you know I am?

36 - 24, hips about 30
I seen a fine lady
And I started talkin dirty
Boy, she looked over at me
And she raised her thumb
She said: "Jam down the road
You bum, bum, bum, bum"
I m a wino man,
Don t you know I am?

I went to the country,
And while I was gone
I lost control of my body functions
On the road ahead at the ladies front lawn
I m so ashamed,
But I m a wino man
I can t help myself
I ve been drinkin all night
Till my eyes got red
Stumbled on the gutter
And busted my head
Bugs in my zoot suit,
Been scratchin like a dog
I can t stand no water,
And I stink like a hog
Give me a five dollar bill,
And an overcoat too
Give me a five dollar bill,
And an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and a floor shine shoe
