Drinkin' wine spoo-dee-o-dee

Well down in New Orleans where everything's fine
All them cats is drinkin' that wine
Drinkin' that mess with delight
An' when they get drunk they fight all night

[Chorus]
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, wine bop-bop
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, pass that bottle to me

Well I got a nickel, have you got a dime
Let's get together and buy a little wine
Some by the fifth, some by the quart
When you buy sherry, you're doin' things smart

[Chorus]

Well, wine-wine-wine, ooh, wine-wine-wine
Yeah, wine-wine-wine, ooh, wine-wine-wine
Ooh down in New Orleans, pass that bottle to me
Drinkin' that mess with delight
An' when they get drunk they fight all night
Knockin' down windows, bang down doors
Drinkin' half a gallon an' then holler for more

[Chorus]
