It's interesting how religious lyrics show up in non-religious songs and vice versa.

I remember this verse was sung by young folks back in the 1960s or earlier in Atlantic City, New Jersey. I've no idea if these exact words came from a recorded Blues song or R&B song or what.

You get a nickel
and I'll get a dime.
And we'll go out a buy some wine.
Drinkin wine, wine, wine
Drinkin wine, wine, wine
Drinkin wine, wine, wine
All the time.
