The Cat Empire - The Wine Song

Click to view

Song and melodies change and change And sway But they still stay the same The songs that we sung when the dark days come Are the songs that we sung when we chased them away If I ever found a pot of gold I'd buy bottles untold of the nectar of the vines I'm going to die with a twinkle in my eye 'cause I sung songs spun stories loved laughed and drank wine		Tomorrow is another day The cats are out to play, to play That old rusty spaceship wants to sail Into the milky way again On a river of red red wine
Run... (let's have some) Fun... (we'll) Drink... (a toast to the) Sun...		In summer the bushfires rage and rage And rage On such beautiful days And we fight them with water that runs through the cracks Water we're desperately trying to save So I'll just live on wine and water my vines And sleep on the wind with the fires right behind And sing on the beaches and dance through the night Oh we'll cry 'pass the wine, pass the wine, pass the wine'
Run... (let's have some) Fun... (we'll) Drink... (a toast to the) Sun...		Oh what a beautiful day today! Today's a day to celebrate Grab your bucket, grab your spade We're heading down to Half Moon Bay I saw a plane go into a cloud I'm drunk I'm happy I'm singing and loud Two o'clock in the arvo, but hey that's allowed... I'm having a good time and of that I am proud
