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)
