Subject: Lyr Add: (THE GRAPES IN) MARY'S VINEYARD (C King) From: Jim Dixon Date: 18 Dec 11 - 07:13 PM (THE GRAPES IN) MARY'S VINEYARD Written by Wayne Carson Thompson & Bob Wilkins As sung by Claude King and the Cotton Dan Band on "Claude King Live!" Oh, the grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine. Now old man Oscar Dill He lived back in the Tennessee hills He got him two or three stills And he makes heavy water. Oh, I worked for him one time Runnin' sour mash across the line, And he wanted me to pay no mind To his three daughters. CHORUS: One was eighteen and one was twenty-two; one was just my age. One by one, I opened the door to the gilded cage. (Oh, yes, I did.) He don't know and I ain't gonna tell him what I done one time, 'Cause he thinks he raised three little angels; I think that's fine. I made love to his sweet Martha, and pretty little Caroline, But the grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine. Now old man Oscar Dill Said he wouldn't hesitate to kill Anybody messin' 'round his still Or his three daughters. But even so, late at night, When the moon wasn't shinin' too bright, I'd sneak around and get brave all right Sippin' his heavy water. CHORUS I made love to his sweet Martha, and pretty little Caroline, But the grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine. |
