Red Mountain Wine

Tonight I’m going to introduce you go Gib Guilbeau, who recorded an album of amazing songs way back in 1973.  Side A, Band 1 is entitled Red Mountain Wine.  Here are the lyrics.

I ain’t got no worries

I ain’t got no home

I ain’t got nobody 

to call on my own

But I’m satisfied with nothing to do

but bum for a dime for some Red Mountain wine.

Some people see me

some people don’t

some women love me

some women won’t

But I’m satisfied with nothing to do

but bum for a dime for my Red Mountain wine.

Got a house in Carolina

and a barn in Tennessee

boxcar in Virginia

and a jail in Waikiki.

Oh I’m satisfied with nothing to do

Just bum for a dime for some Red Mountain wine.

They don’t write them like that anymore.
