Wonderful Wino Composer(s): Jeff Simmons; Frank Zappa Performer(s): Frank Zappa; The Muffin Men; Jeff Simmons
L.A. in the summer of '69 I went downtown and bought me some wine I wasted my head on a bottle of juice And now the grapes won't cut me loose Well I'm a wino man Well, don't you know I am? Great god almighty, don't you know I'm a wino man
36, 24, hips about 30 Seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty She looked at me and then she raised the thumb And said: "Jam down the road, you funky ass bum" Well I'm a wino man Well, don't you know I am? Great god almighty, don't you know that I'm a wino man
I went to the country And while I was gone I lost control of my body functions On a roller-headed lady's front lawn I'm so ashamed, but I'm a wino man And I can't help myself
I've been drinkin' all night till my eyes got red Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head Bugs in my zoot suit, have been scratchin' like a dog Can't stand no water, and I stink like a hog Give me a five dollar bill And an overcoat too Give me a five dollar bill And an overcoat too A five dollar bill and an overcoat too A five dollar bill and a Florsheim shoe
