Cass McCombsThe Wine of Lebanon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What's left when fortune fair returns a thief?
Providence is too brief
What's left to grieve?
Currency, the bitter end
After the flood, what remains?
[Chorus]
The wine of Lebanon
The wine of Lebanon
[Verse 2]
What's left when harvest tugs upon her yoke?
Cruel garters around her, choke
What's left to hope?
Strap me down into your chair
Whip me 'til I beg for air
[Chorus]
The wine of Lebanon
The wine of Lebanon
[Verse 3]
What's left of decadence after a year?
Pulling them from ear to ear

What is left?
What is right?
[Chorus]
The wine of Lebanon
You offered me
The wine of Lebanon
Flowing free
The wine of Lebanon
So red and true
The wine of Lebanon
What can I offer you?
What can I offer you?
