(Hank Mills - Dick Jennings)



I'm praying for the rain in California

So the grapes can grow and they can make more wine

I'm sittin' in a honky in Chicago

With a broken heart and a woman on my mind.



I match the man behind the bar for the jukebox

Then the music takes me back to Tennessee

When they ask who's the fool in the corner cryin'

I say little ole wine drinker me.

I came here last week from down in Nashville

Cause my baby left for Florida on a train

I thought I'd get a job and soon forget her

But in Chicago a broken heart is still the same.



I match the man behind the bar for the jukebox

Then the music takes me back to Tennessee

When they ask who's the fool in the corner cryin'

I say little ole wine drinker me.



I say little ole wine drinker me...
