The title I always knew for "The Vine" was TODAY. Don't know if that's right or wrong, but it may aid in searches. I also have a hazy memory of a recording of it by the New Christy Minstrels back in the 60s, if that's any help.

Does anyone know who wrote "Summer wine" sung by Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood, also "Gold watch Blues" which starts "I went down for my interview..." and "The Vine" which begins "Today while the blossom still clings to the vine... Thanks
