WAR w/ Eric Burdon - Spill the Wine Lyrics
I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest in a big field of tall grass
I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face

And I fell asleep and dreamed I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
should be the star of a Hollywood movie

But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings
I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world
In front of every kind of girl, there was long ones tall ones short ones
Brown ones, black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones...

Out of the middle came a lady She whispered in my ear something crazy She said:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

I thought to myself what could that mean
Am I going crazy or is this just a dream Now, wait a minute I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere so it's all in my head and then.. I heard her say one more time:

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back As she disappeared, but soon she returned
In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
And raised it to her lips And just before she drank it, she said:

Take the wine, dig that girl , do I dig that girl, do I did that girl, Ma ma ma, do I dig that girl, Dig that Girl, Yeah, it all yours, you got to do it, spill that wine, Spill that wine,
make me feel, make me feel,
ahh yeah, yeah, ohhh ahhh ma ma Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine
