When I Drink My Wine

Porter Wagoner

(Dolly Parton)

Sweet reief awaits me, forgetfulness is mine
When I drink my wine, when drink my wine
I can feel no pain no shame I leave it all behind
When I drink my wine when I drink my wine.

I forget there ever was a love I once called mine
When I drink my wine when drink my wine
There's no past no future I have no track of time
When I drink my wine when drink my wine.

When I drink my wine I forget I used to be
A man with dignety and pride
And I forget that I am now a drunkard on the street
Cause all my hopes and dreams and plans have died.

When I drink my wine I forget how much
I love her and I can get her off my mind
When I drink my wine, when drink my wine...
