lwas sittin' in Miami pourin'

blended whiskey down

When this old gray Black gentleman

was cleanin' up the lounge
When this old gray Black gentleman

was cleanin' up the lounge
There wasn't anyone around

'cept this old man and me
The guy who ran the bar

was watchin' Ironside on TV
'cept this old man and me

The guy who ran the bar

was watchin' Ironside on TV
Uninvited, he sat down

and opened up his mind

0n old dogs and children,

and watermelon wine
Ever had a drink of

watermelon wine, he asked

He told me all about it,

though I didn't answer back
watermelon wine, he asked

He told me all about it,

though I didn't answer back
He told me all about it,

though I didn't answer back
Ain't but three things in this

world that's worth a solitary dime

But old dogs and children,

and watermelon wine
He said, Women

think about themselves,

when menfolk

ain't around
Now it's

old dogs and

children and

watermelon wine
even when you make mistakes

God bless little children while

they're still too young to hate
God bless little children while

they're still too young to hate
pen and copied down that line

'Bout old dogs and children,

and watermelon wine
'Bout old dogs and children,

and watermelon wine
INSTRUMENTAL
to Atlanta that next day

As I left for my room,

I saw him pickin' up my change
As I left for my room,

I saw him pickin' up my change
That nightl dreamed in peaceful

sleep of shady summertime
Ofold dogs and children

and watermelon wine
sleep of shady summertime

Ofold dogs and children

and watermelon wine
