Wet winter left me cold and crying,
Beaten black and blue,
Someone said there's no harm in trying,
Nothing else to do.
I'm just a-walking in the sunshine,
Leave your troubles all behind you,
I think I'll drink a little red wine,
I'll take you where they'll never find you.
Sad songs, well I've heard to many,
Words that didn't rhyme,
Long years never had a penny,
But we spend the time.
Just a-walking in the sunshine,
Try to keep from going under,
I think I'll drink a little red wine,
Ain't no use to sit and wonder.
As I would say?
Autumn eve and the leaves are falling,
'till the trees are bare,
Summer's gone I can hear you calling,
Haven't got a care.
Just a-walking in the sunshine,
Leave your troubles behind you,
I think I'll drink a little red wine,
I'll take you where they'll never find you.
As I would say?
