YESTERDAY'S WINE

Music & lyrics by George Jones & Merle Haaard & Willie Nelson, 1982

---------------------------------------------------------------

Miracles appear in the strangest of places

Fancy me fining you here

The last time I saw you was just out of Houston

Let Me Sit down, let me buy you a beer

 

Your presence is welcome with me and my friend here

This is a hangout of mine

 

We come here quite often and listen to music

And to taste yesterday's wine

 

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine

Aging with time, like yesterday's wine

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine

We're Aging with time, like yesterday's wine

 

You give the appearence of one widely travelled

Lord I'll bet you've seen things in your time

Come sit down here with us and tell us your story

If its true you'll like yesterday's wine

 

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine

Aging with time, like yesterday's wine

Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine

We're Aging with time, like yesterday's wine
