Cherry Wine Lyrics – The Other Favorites
Singer: The Other Favorites
Title: Cherry Wine
Well the bull is on the run
And the bear has come
The time is ripe for moving to Chicago
Got a cousin out there who still recalls my mother
With a sofa bed in the bas#ment of his brownstone
Now the arm of the law has long been broken
Still its grubby little fingers grasp at me
I wear your silver locket as a token
Of the everlasting love I long to keep
I have seen the gilded palace
Where you drink your cherry wine
And fill the chalice of another
Oh, soon, it will be mine
I filched a wedding dress from my ex-lover
Fixed a job to pay off my tuxedo
Two boys in a flatbed undercover
Only one will make it to Toledo
I heard your new companion is a chaplain
Well what do you think he’d charge to read the vowels?
I reek of Famous Grouse and Midwest farmland
Stumbling up the front steps to your house
I have seen the gilded palace
Where you drink your cherry wine
And fill the chalice of another
Oh, soon, it will be mine
I have another pull of my whiskey
Say I’ve come to take back what belongs to me
He says “I think I understand you correctly
I’ve got a housewarming gift up my sleeve”
Now I’ve stared down a birdshot-loaded rifle
I’ve given both my ears to bowie knives
But the .357 smokeless ain’t no trifle
You can see clean through my chest to the other side
All my hatred, all my malice
Flowing out like cherry wine
I will plague you here no longer
You were never to be mine
All my hatred, all my malice
Flowing out like cherry wine
I will plague you here no longer
You were never to be mine
I will plague you here no longer
You were never to be mine
