Cheap Wine

Cheap Wine


He dived into the wild side lost in a cloud of smoke.
He smiled when they tried to say: «This is not a joke».
One day the dark lady said: «Baby, I’m waiting for you».
He laughed and said: «Lady this wisecrack
is not something new».

They were waiting for him with their loaded guns.
He was just a young boy, a rebel son.

They saw a ragged old man
with a pig on a lead coming by.
They started to laugh and to fool takin’ him for a ride.
He stopped by the inn and said: «Guys would you please be so kind to care of my pig
while I drink a good glass of cheap wine?»

Then he took back the pig and said:
«Thanks and goodbye».
And he faded away, with a smile.

The following day thay were waiting
but he did not come around.
So they said: «He’s just a coward, a swaggerer
down to the ground».
Well, then a letter came on sayin’:
«Thank you for your kindness too.
You can just care of my pig, that’s all you can do».

Broken down by a laugh, with their loaded guns.
He was just a young boy, a rebel son.
