WAYLON JENNINGS - SUNSET AND WINE lyrics

rate me

I left the old farm down in Texas and bummed all around for a time

Then one day I found myself staring at a sign that read Sunset and Wine

The big cars and the beautiful women put beautiful thoughts in my mind

I decided to be a great actor on the corner of Sunset and Wine

Then a man with a cigar approached me and he put his face right to mine

And declared a great star hit this cover on the corner of Sunset and Wine

[ ac.guitar - harmonica ]

Well I thought he was right for a while for the band seemed to thrill with each line

And they put my name in the sidewalk near the corner of Sunset and Wine

Now six wives and six divorces later I'm down to one very thin dime

And I wish I was back home in Texas and I'd never seen Sunset and Wine

[ harmonica ]

I wish I'd never seen Sunset and Wine
