Wino Man With Dr. John Routine

Jeff Simmons, Frank Zappa

Bringing in the sheaves
Bringing in the sheaves
We will come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves

L.A. in the summer of '69
I went downtown and bought some wine
I wasted my head on three quarts o' juice
And now the grapes won't turn me loose
I'm a wino man, don't you know I am

36, 24, hips about 30
(36, 24, hips about 30)
I seen some witch and I started talkin' dirty
(Seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty)
She looked at me and raised her thumb
Thumb yea-eah
And said jam down the road, you funky-ass bum
'Cause I'm a wino man, know I am

I, I went to the country
And while I was gone
A roller-headed lady
Caught me weedlin' on her lawn
I'm so ashamed, but I'm a wino man
I can't help myself

Oh yeah

Wino man, don't you know I am
Well, my drug indulgence
And my wino career are in a slump
'Cause I find myself now living in a cardboard refrigerator box down by the Houston dump
And I'm so ashamed
I been drinkin' all night and my eyes are all red
Why my (?) I don't know which way to go
Give me five bucks and a hot meal
Give me fi-i-i-i-ive bucks and a hot meal
(Give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks and a hot meal)
I tell you everytime I get a chance, oh yeah

FZ: I wondered what it would sound like if Dr. John the Night Tripper sang this song?

Gris gris gumbo, ya ya

FZ: Should be gris-gris gumbo wino

Heya dadadaah
Come on

Gris gris gumbo, ya ya
Heya dadadaah
[continues]

They call me Dr. John
I'm known as the Night Tripper
Got my satchel of gris-gris in my hand
We take all the stamped-out hippies way down the bayou
I'm the last of the best, known as the gris-gris man
And my women say
And my band be cookin'
And I don't need no Fender Amplifier
Come on
Everybody sing along, come on
Gris-gris
The doctor's on get down sometime
The preceding was paid for
Shuck shuck shuck shuck . .
