Thunderbird Wine

[Verse 1]
Up every mornin' at the break of dawn
The nights are short, the days are long
Life turned out to be another magazine

[Verse 2]
I'm livin' with a stranger now
The girl knew I got away somehow
She went out with two bit of gasoline
I wanna go back, know what I mean?

[Chorus]
When the word was Thunderbird
And the price was forty twice
Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
But love turned out to be a passin' thing
A different bird of a different wing
Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine
On a jug of Thunderbird Wine
And Lord I don't know if I'm gonna make it
I don't know if I'll have the strength to take it
Everything's hung up in yesterday

[Verse 3]
Married to a civic-minded social girl
Takin' short cuts in a woman's world
She won't let her hair down when I'm home

[Verse 4]
Society is just slavery
And security is killin' me
I work hard for it but I give it all away
If I could go back to yesterday

[Chorus]
When the word was Thunderbird
And the price was forty twice
Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
But love turned out to be a passin' thing
A different bird of a different wing
Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine
On a jug of Thunderbird Wine
And Lord I don't know if I'm gonna make it
I don't know if I'll have the strength to take it
Everything's hung up in yesterday

[Chorus]
When the word was Thunderbird
And the price was forty twice
Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
