We're gonna break out the wine my dear We're gonna break out the wine my dear We're gonna break out the wine my dear, I know 'Cause there's a hangman there with all his charms And he's waiting for me with open arms We're gonna break out the wine when I get back to shore
And the sun's gonna shine, my dear Oh yeah, the sun's gonna shine, my dear Oh yeah, the sun's gonna shine, my dear I know Well I know I should have made that call But I've been making friends with alcohol And the sun's gonna shine when I get back to shore
I've been gone so long you know I've grown And now I can't fit under that headstone
You're gonna play me a sweet old tune You're gonna play me a sweet old tune You're gonna play me a sweet old tune, I know You're gonna play me a song in a minor key And serenade what's left of me You're gonna play me a tune when I get back to shore
We're gonna break out the wine my dear We're gonna break out the wine my dear We're gonna break out the wine my dear, I know 'Cause there's a hangman there with all his charms And he's waiting for me with open arms We're gonna break out the wine when I get back to shore We're gonna break out the wine when I get back to shore
