Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee - Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee

Down in New Orleans, where everything is fine

All them cats is drinkin' that wine

Drinking that mess to their delight

When they gets drunk, start singing all night

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Pass that bottle to me

Drinking that mess to their delight

When they gets drunk, start fighting all night

Knocking down windows and tearin' out doors

Drinkin' half a gallons and callin' for more

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Sneaky Pete

Now down on Rampart street at Willy’s Den

He wasn’t selling but a gill of gin

One cat wanted a bottle of wine

He hit that cat for a dollar and a dime

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Oh when you’re buying sherry, now you’re doing things smart

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine, bop ba

Giù a New Orleans, dove va tutto bene

Tutti quei gatti stanno bevendo quel vino

Bere quel pasticcio con loro gioia

Quando si ubriacano, inizia a cantare tutta la notte

Bere vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Passami quella bottiglia

Bere quel pasticcio con loro gioia

Quando si ubriacano, inizia a litigare tutta la notte

Abbattere le finestre e sfondare le porte

Bere mezzo gallone e chiedere di più

Bere vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Passami quella bottiglia

Ehi, ehi, ehi

Vino, vino, vino, sambuco

Vino, vino, vino, Port Sherry

Vino, vino, vino, Blackberry

Vino, vino, vino, metà e metà

Vino, vino, vino, oh ragazzo

Passami quella bottiglia

Se vuoi andare d'accordo nella città di New Orleans

Compra del vino e passalo in giro

L'età sale per stasera

Tutti quei gatti amano il vino dolce

Bere vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Passami quella bottiglia

Ehi, ehi

Bevi quel drink

È di questo che sto parlando

Ah, bevilo

Pete subdolo

Ora giù su Rampart Street a Willy's Den

Non vendeva ma una branchia di gin

Un gatto voleva una bottiglia di vino

Ha colpito quel gatto per un dollaro e un centesimo

Bere vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Passami quella bottiglia

Ehi, ehi

Vino, vino, vino, sambuco

Vino, vino, vino, Port Sherry

Vino, vino, vino, Blackberry

Vino, vino, vino, metà e metà

Vino, vino, vino, oh ragazzo

Passami quella bottiglia

Io ho un nickel, tu hai un centesimi

Ritroviamoci e prendiamo un po' di vino

Alcuni al quinto e altri al quarto

Oh quando compri lo sherry, ora fai le cose in modo intelligente

Bere vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Vino spo-dee-o-dee, bere vino, bop ba

Passami quella bottiglia
