WHO WILL BUY THE WINE ?
(Billy Mize)

Ernest Tubb - 1960

Also recorded by: Jim Croce; Preacher Jack; 
Justin Trevino; Charlie Walker.


Not long ago you held our baby’s bottle
But the one you’re holding now’s a different kind
You just sit and wait to be somebody’s baby
And it all depends on Who Will Buy The Wine

Who ever sets them up and tips the waitress
Will be the one to share the love that’s mine
You’d never know whose lips you’d soon be kissing
And it all depends on Who Will Buy The Wine

The kind of life your living since you left me
I’m sure it’s not the life you thought you chose
That Honky Tonky world is not so flashy
Bright lights and booze is all it really knows

Who ever sets them up and tips the waitress
Will be the one to share the love that’s mine
You’d never know whose lips you’d soon be kissing
And it all depends on Who Will Buy The Wine
