Frank Zappa Wonderful Wino Lyrics

L.A. in the summer of '69
I went downtown and bought me some wine
I wasted my head on a bottle of juice
And now the brain won't cut me loose
Well I'm a wino man, well don't you know I am?
Great God almighty don't you know that I'm a wino man?

36-24-hips about 30
I seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty
She looked at me and then she raised her thumb
She said: "Jam down the road you funky a__ b__"
Well I'm a wino man, well don't you know I am?
Great God almighty don't you know that I'm a wino man?

I went to the country and while I was gone
I lost control of my body functions
On the road ahead at the ladies front lawn
I'm so ashamed but I'm a wino man and I can't help myself
I've been drinkin' all night till my eyes got red
Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head
Bugs in my zoot suit and I'm scratchin' like a dog
I can't stand no water and I stink like a hog
Give me a five dollar bill and an overcoat too
Give me a five dollar bill and an overcoat too
Five dollar bill and an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and a floor shine shoe
