Strawberry Wine

[Verse 1]
I would try my finger and I would try my hand
At any fool game in this man's land
But don't you talk about this here friend of mine
I ain't never been let down and you'd be wastin' time

[Verse 2]
I would scratch and steal, I would maim a man
I would even run the bounty across the other county
So don't you talk about this here friend of mine
I gave it all of my money, but it makes me feel fine

[Verse 3]
Yeah, I know you won't give me no peace of mind
Try to understand I just wanna feel good all the time
Don't you talk about a dear old friend of mine
Well, I know that you are sweet and more than double fine
Everybody said you oughta marry that rich man down the line
But if I had to make a choice, I wouldn't change my mind
Honey, you just ain't as sweet as my strawberry wine, oh no

[Verse 4]
Yeah, you caught me when I's down a-sleepin' in the park
Climbin' up the walls and laughin' in the dark
But I heard you been talkin' about a dear old friend of mine
Never tasted anything as sweet as my strawberry wine
