Blackberry Wine lyrics

There`s a south wind risin` and the moon shines on my window sill
I`ve got a feeling I might walk on over the hill
I`m bent but not broken, all I need is some rest
And a bottle of your very best
Blackberry wine

There`s a new moon risin` and the wind sings its old song
Pass it on over it`s a sin to be sober too long
I`m bent but not broken, all I need is my share
Of a bottle of that very rare
Blackberry wine

My old gal`s got a new dress on five and dime
Try as she will she can`t get me to come home on time
But I`d never cheat her or mistreat her you know
As over the mountain I go
Blackberry wine

I`ll be soft spoken
All I need is my rest
And a bottle of your very best
Blackberry wine

Now my days are numbered and one more heel`s been killed
Blackberry John left me his old recipe in his will
I`m bent but not broken, all I need is some time
And a bottle of your very fine
Blackberry wine

Blackberry wine,
You know that I`m quite dry without you
Blackberry wine
