Lyrics
Down in Petersburg everything's fine
All them cats is drinkin' that wine
Drinkin' that mess is their delight
When it gets rough, start singin' all night
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Pass that bottle to me
Drinkin' that mess is their delight
When it gets rough, start fighin' all night
Knockin' down windows and tearin' down doors
Drinkin' half-gallons, and callin' for more
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Pass that bottle to me
If you want to get along and see the stars
Buy some wine and pass it around
Age goin' up to 49
All them cats, they love sweet wine
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (muc-muc)
Pass that bottle to me
(Wine, wine, wine)
Hail the barrel
(Wine, wine, wine)
Share it, share it
(Wine, wine, wine)
Black berry
(Wine, wine, wine)
Go on and share it
(Wine, wine, wine)
Ohh, pass that bottle to me
Knock down on Bill Street in Woli's Den
They wouldn't sell no American gin
One sold you one, and bottle of wine
You hit that cat for a dollar and nine
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Pass that bottle to me
Now I've got a nickel, you've got a dime
Let's get together, get some wine
Some buy a fifth, some buy a quarter
But when you get together, you don't think smart
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Drink wine, Spo-dee-o-dee, drink wine (spuc-spuc)
Pass that bottle to me (spuc-spuc)
