I Will Drink the Wine

I Will Drink the Wine - Jimmy Crawford

Someone said

Drink the water

But I will drink the wine

Someone said take a poor man

'Cause a rich

Don't have a dime

You go fool yourselves if you will

I just haven't got the time

You can drink the water

I will drink the wine

Someone gave me

Some small flowers

I held them in my hand

Looked at them for many many hours

I just didn't understand

You go fool yourselves if you will

You can hold out your hand

Let me give you back

The flowers

And I will take the land

I will drink that wine

Sometimes when I'm very very lonely

'Cause there's only me who cares

And when I'm very very lonely

I meet someone to share

I'm gonna drink that wine

I wanna take my time

And believe

In a dream

That is mine

Someone gave me

Some small flowers

I held them in my hand

Looked at them for many many hour

I just didn't

Understand

You can go fool yourselves if you will

You can hold out your hand

Let me give you back the flowers

But let me take the land

And I will drink that wine

And I will take the land

But please

Let me drink

The wine
