Lyrics - Smoking Grapevine
Smokin' Grapevine
Written by Bob Shane

(laughter)
When I was a young boy, in the back woods of Georgia.
I spent my time, in the woods, by the river,
smokin' grapevine...

Chorus:
Smokin' grapevine, was sweeter than wine.
I spent my time in the woods, by the river,
smokin' grapevine.

I wished that I never, heard of grapevine.
It burnt my lips and blistered my tounge,
and turned on my mind.

(Chorus)

Spoken:
Play a link or two Jimmy. Can you play it yet? Huh?

Now my pappy caught me,(Oh he caught me)
while smokin' that way.(Smokin' and a-chockin')
Words can't describe, the inches of hide,
that I lost that day.

(Chorus) One more all together now!Oh-(Chorus)

Puffing the vine, and blowing my mind...
(laughter)
