Eric Burdon And War - Spill The Wine lyrics

Your rating:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

 I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
 When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
 in a big field of tall grass
 I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face

 And I fell asleep and dreamed
 I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
 And that I was the star of the movie
 This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
 an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
 should be the star of a Hollywood movie

 But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings
 I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world
 In front of every kind of girl, there was
 black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones...

 Out of the middle came a lady
 She whispered in my ear something crazy
 She said:

 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

 (spoken:)

 I thought to myself what could that mean
 Am I going crazy or is this just a dream
 Now, wait a minute
 I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere
 so it's all in my head
 and then.. I heard her say one more time:

 (sung:)

 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl


 (spoken:)
 I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
 As she disappeared, but soon she returned
 In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass
 She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
 And raised it to her lips
 And just before she drank it, she said:

 (sung:)
 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
 Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
