Spill The Wine Lyrics - The Animals

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day 

When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest 

in a big field of tall grass 

I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face 

And I fell asleep and dreamed 

I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie 

And that I was the star of the movie 

This really blew my mind, the fact that me, 

an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome 

should be the star of a Hollywood movie 

But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings 

I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world 

In front of every kind of girl, there was 

black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones...

Out of the middle came a lady 

She whispered in my ear something crazy 

She said: 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

(spoken:) 

I thought to myself what could that mean 

Am I going crazy or is this just a dream 

Now, wait a minute 

I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere 

so it's all in my head 

and then. I heard her say one more time: 

(sung:) 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

(spoken:) 

I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back 

As she disappeared, but soon she returned 

In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass 

She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass 

And raised it to her lips 

And just before she drank it, she said: 

(sung:) 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl 

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
