Down in Charlotte where everything’s fine,
All them cats is drinkin’ that wine.
Drinkin’ that mess is their delight,
When they get drunk, start singin’ all night.
Drinkin’ wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin’ wine,
Wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin’ wine,
Wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin’ wine,
Pass that bottle to me!
Now I’ve got a nickel, have you got a dime?
Let’s get together and get a little wine.
Some buys a gallon some buys a quart,
When you buy black beer, now you’re doin’ things smart.
Drinkin’ wine spo-dee-o-dee.....
Down on Rempart Street in Willie’s den,
He would sell but a gill of gin.
One cat wanted a bottle of wine
He hooked that cat for a dollar and a dime.
Drinkin’ wine spo-dee-o-dee......
Made in China. Don’t buy it!
