Şarkı sözleri
Little Johnny Brown never wears a frown
When you say the country's going dry
Others tear their hair but Johnny doesn't care
He's got everybody guessing why
When I said how quiet things will be
Johnny said, "Perhaps, but not for me"
For you don't need the wine to have a wonderful time
While they still make those beautiful girls
Adam and Eve never tasted champagne
Still they were able to go out and raise Cain
And any sweet miss who knows the right way to kiss
Can set any brain in a whirl
People like to drink because it makes them feel gay
A girlie on my lap can make me feel the same way
So you don't need the wine to have a wonderful time
While they still make those beautiful girls
Last week I started out of my house with the sole intention of
Having a good time. So I entered a liquor emporium and, sad to
Say, when I came out, all I had left of my twelve dollars was a
Headache. I then met a beautiful girl, oh, she was a beautiful
Damsel, and I smiled at her and she smiled at me and I said, "
Where are you going, my pretty maid?" And she said, "Why, no place
In particular." So I said, "Would you go to the park?" And she said
"Would." Well, we had that agreed upon, so we went to the park
And sat on a bench. And oh mama, she had such beautiful eyes
And I looked at her and she looked at me and then I realized that
You don't need the wine to have a wonderful time
While they still make those beautiful girls
Why should we care if the wine isn't there?
We still have the sofa and the old Morris chair
And any sweet miss who knows the right way to kiss
Can set any brain in a whirl
Lots of people like a cordial after dessert
But give me something cordial that is wrapped in a skirt
So you don't need the wine to have a wonderful time
While they still make those beautiful girls
