Blackberry Wine Lyrics - All Live - Gordon Lightfoot

There's a south wind risin' and the moon shines on my window sill 

I've got a feeling I might walk on over the hill 

I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some rest 

And a bottle of your very best 

Blackberry wine 

There's a new moon risin' and the wind sings it's old song 

Pass it on over it's a sin to be sober too long 

I'm bent but not broken, all I need is my share 

Of a bottle of that very rare 

Blackberry wine 

My old gal's got a new dress on five and dime 

Try as she will she can't get me to come home on time 

But I'd never cheat her or mistreat her you know 

As over the mountain I go 

Blackberry wine 

I'll be soft spoken 

All I need is my rest 

And a bottle of your very best 

Blackberry wine 

Now my days are numbered and one more heel's been killed 

Blackberry john left me his old recipe in his will 

I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some time 

And a bottle of your very fine 

Blackberry wine
