lyrics

It's been a long, cold winter in the pines
The mountains, and so has been my mind
My baby sent me packing now I'm drinking all the time
Spending all my money on that sweet country wine

Now walking back is hard now don't it seem
Lord I've changed, and damn it she will see
Haven't spent one single penny, I've been saving every dime
But I'm still spending dollars on that sweet country wine


Now its a long way back to Memphis
and a longer way back to my sweet Georgine
If I buy her flowers she's gonna throw them back at me
And I'm still walking back to Tennessee


My baby knows that I've come all this way
When I get there I'm gonna say what I have to say
I'm a different man my baby and loving you is such a crime
Kiss me, let me drink you like that sweet country wine


Now its a long way back to Memphis
and a longer way back to my sweet Georgine
If I buy her flowers she's gonna throw them back at me
And I'm still walking back to Tennessee
