Claude King - Mary's Vineyard lyrics
The grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine Old man Oscar Dill lived back in the Tennessee hills He's got him two or three stills and he makes heavy water Oh I worked for him one time runnin' sour mash across the line And he warned me to pay no mind to his three daughters Yeah one was eighteen and one was twenty two one was just my age One by one I opened the door to the gilded cage (yes I did now) He don't know and I ain't gonna tell him what I've done one time Cause he thinks he raised three little angels ah I think that's fine I made love to his sweet Martha and pretty little Caroline But the grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine Now old man Oscar Dill said he wouldn't hesitate to kill Anybody messin' round his stills or his three daughters But even so late at night when the moon wasn't shining too bright I'd sneaked around get brave all right sippin' his heavy water Yeah one was eighteen... I made love to his sweet Martha... |
