Grapes On A Vine Lyrics - Betty Wright

Ooh (Oh, oh, oh) 

Mm (oh, oh) 

Oh (Oh, oh) 

Oh whoa 

(Oh, oh-oh) 

Daddy always told me to be real 

Daddy always said that, I should say just what I feel 

People, they will judge you cause they just don't understand 

You're in it for the long ride, you don't just give up on a man 

And like every woman who's been through the fire as well 

We ALL got a story half afraid to tell, yeah 

People they will judge you 'cause they just can't comprehend 

You're headed for the long ride, you don't just give up on a friend

(Now the ones have moved on) Gone to where the sun shines all the time 

(We're still standing) Though some might think we've lost our minds 

(We shall fulfill) our legacy divine 

It's just that we're so different, makes our place a little harder to find 

[Chorus] 

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine) don't always make sweet wine 

Grapes on a vine, yeah, don't always make sweet wine 

Grapes on a vine (Grapes on a vine) don't always make sweet wine 

Might be bitter, but it gets better with time 

Momma always said that, it's okay to dream 

Momma always warned me things ain't always what they seem (and my momma told me) 

People, they will judge you; leave you sittin' on a shelf 

Remember it's a long ride, just don't you give up on yourself 

And like every man, who wants to make his mark 

We ALL got a secret hidden in our hearts, yeah {We all got a secret} 

People they will judge us, 'cause they just don't really see 

We're in it for the long ride, just don't you give up on you and me, no!

[Chorus] 

Uh, uh 

Grapes on a vine, ain't nuttin' sweet 

You gotta pay the price, just keep your receipt 

I can make the world have a seat on my feet 

And I come from New Orleans where the water too deep 

Money bring problems, the funny thang 'bout it 

Everybody want it, want it 'til they got it 

Sometimes I forget and put my trouble in my pockets 

Then hang up my pants, now I got monsters in my closet 

Get right with me, Miss Wright with me 

Die hard, I got too much life in me 

Shades on, I'm seein' past that 

Bittersweet wine, where your glass at? 

Toast! You haters are ghost 

I make y'all sick, you need a full dose, ha! 

And my momma told me do me 

And stay away from that fruit tree, because 

[Chorus: x2] 

(Do you, do you) 

So do you, do you, do you 

(Miss Wright with me) Be your own best friend 

(Miss Wright with me) Be your own best friend 

(Miss Wright with me, Miss Wright with me) 

Be your own best friend 

(Miss Wright, Miss Wright, Miss Wright with me) 

You gotta love on you before anybody else can learn to 

You gotta love you, LOVE you, yeah, love you, love you
