Jug of Wine

from The Shitstorm EP by Wine Swamp

/

lyrics

I have listened to the wind
I've tasted the seas
Followed the seasons
Like a leaf in a tree
I've weathered beneath the weather
Withstood some time
And chased it all down
With big gulps of wine

For wisdom I've question
And wisdom I've found
Could never be bottled
And carried around

But If I have learned something
From the whispering pines
That wisdom without love
Is a Jug without wine

Now my life is a magnum
In a bum's careful hands
Every drop emptied
But I've got a plan
I'll crawl and I'll scamper
I'll scramble and search
I'll follow the shadow
To the sun that gave birth

To the lonesome old feeling
Thats been passed around
From the banker to the poet
From the poet to the clown

When I find it I'll take out
That old jug of wine
And fill it with love
That for a moment is miiiiinnnnnneeee
