Frank Zappa – Wonderful Wino Lyrics  Share

From Frank Zappa's album: Zoot Allures

(Frank Zappa and Jeff Simmons)

L.A. in the summer of ^,69
I went downtown and bought me some wine
Oh, I drank it down under the table
I said: "Watch me now, I^,m gonna eat the label!"
Well I^,m a wino man
Don^,t you know I am?

36, 24, hips about 30
I seen a fine lady and I started talkin^, dirty
Boy, she looked over at me and she raised the thumb
She said: "Jam down the road, you fun-ba-bum-bum"
I^,m a wino man
Don^,t you know I am?

I went to the country
And while I was gone
[ Wonderful Wino lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/f/frank-zappa/wonderful-wino/ ]
I lost control of my body functions
On a roller-headed lady^,s front lawn
I^,m so ashamed, but I^,m a wino man
I can^,t help myself

I^,ve been drinkin^, all night till my eyes got red
Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head
Bugs in my zoot suit, been scratchin^, like a dog
I can^,t stand no water, and I stink like a hog
Give me a five dollar bill
And an overcoat too
Give me a five dollar bill
And an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and a Florsheim shoe
