Little Ole Wine Drinker Me by Carl Smith Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1968

I'm prayin' for rain in California
So the grapes can grow and they can make more wine
And I'm sittin' in a honky tonk 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 ole wine drinker me

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 ole wine drinker me
