Elderberry Wine Lyrics - Your Song - Elton John

There's a fly in the window 

A dog in the yard 

And a year since I saw you 

There's a trunk in the corner 

I keep all my letters 

My bills and demands I keep too 

Well I can't help thinking 

About the times 

You were a wife of mine 

You aimed to please me 

Cooked black-eyed peas-me 

Made elderberry wine

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Drunk all the time 

Feeling fine on elderberry wine 

Those were the days 

We'd lay in the haze 

Forget depressive times 

How can I ever get it together 

Without a wife in line 

To pick the crop and get me hot 

On elderberry wine 

Round a tree in the summer 

A fire in the fall 

Flat out when they couldn't stand 

The bottle went round 

Like a woman down south 

Passed on from hand to hand 

Well I can't help thinking 

About the times 

You were a wife of mine 

You aimed to please me 

Cooked black-eyed peas-me 

Made elderberry wine 

Drunk all the time 

Feeling fine on elderberry wine 

Those were the days 

We'd lay in the haze 

Forget depressive times 

How can I ever get it together 

Without a wife in line 

To pick the crop and get me hot 

On elderberry wine 

Drunk all the time 

Feeling fine on elderberry wine 

Those were the days 

We'd lay in the haze 

Forget depressive times 

How can I ever get it together 

Without a wife in line 

To pick the crop and get me hot 

On elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine 

Elderberry wine
