Sip the Wine - Rick Danko, Paul Butterfield

I want to lay down beside you

I want to hold your body close to mine

Like a grape that grows ripe in the sunshine

There comes a time when we must sip the wine

I can tell by lookin … that you’re not mine girl

I believe everything I told you was true

There’s a child here that wants to start livin

And you know that this child will get it’s start

from me and you

Close your eyes … and don’t you think of nothing

Let your thoughts remain here inside this room

Lay your head beside me on my pillow

And I will share this night with you

We must sip the wine … till it feels alright

We must sip the wine … into the night

We must sip the wine … together …
