Lyrics

There's a cork in my bottle now, keeps my wine from flowin' down
There's a cork in my bottle now, keeps my wine from flowin' down
If that spirit moves me, you know I just might drown


Been bone dry, goin' on three long years
Yes I been bone dry, goin on three long years
If a change don't come down soon, might have to soak away these tears

Ain't had a drop now, just ain't had the taste
No I ain't had a drop now baby, just ain't had the taste
But I hate to see this sweet, sweet wine, see it all go to waste


Your meetin' place, seem to leave me wringing wet
Your meetin' place, seem to leave me wringing wet
Well that preacher keep a prayin,Oh my God and it ain't worked yet


See I'm on my way down, down, down and I ain't drunk yet
