Bottle of Wine
Words and Music by Tom Paxton
[Chorus:]
Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine,
When you gonna let me get sober?
Leave me along, let me go home.
Let me go back and start over.

Ramblin’ around this dirty old town,
Singin’ for nickels and dimes.
Times getting tough I ain’t got enough,
To buy a little bottle of wine.

[Chorus]

Little hotel, older than Hell,
Dark as the coal in the mine.
Blanket so thin, I lay there and grin,
‘Cause I got a little bottle of wine.

[Chorus]

It’s a pain in my head, bugs in my bed,
And my pants are so old that they shine.
Out on the street, tell the people I meet,
To buy me a bottle of wine.

[Chorus]

A preacher will preach, and a teacher will teach,
And a miner will dig in the mine.
I ride the rods, trusting in God,
And huggin’ my bottle of wine.

[Chorus]

The Days of Wine and Roses

Francis Albert Sinatra was an American singer and Academy Award-winning actor, often cited as the finest male American popular song vocalist of the 20th century. Over a career that spanned seven decades, Sinatra recorded a catalogue of classic albums such as In the Wee Small Hours, Songs For Swingin’ Lovers, Come Fly With Me, Only the Lonely and September of My Years along with numerous signature songs like “My Way”; “New York, New York”; “Strangers in the Night”; and “It Was a Very Good Year”; “The Days Of Wine and Roses”. With over 250 million records sold worldwide, Sinatra and his music remain hugely popular nearly seventy years after his first recordings, while, as an actor, he became highly acclaimed for his performances in films such as From Here to Eternity, The Man with the Golden Arm, Suddenly, Pal Joey, Ocean’s Eleven, and The Manchurian Candidate.

Half Full Glass Of Wine is the type of song you come across rarely with its half speed, double riffing magic. Kevin’s vocals float through the air like a magic carpet ride through an aural wonderland, the guitars dual each other in a call and response frenzy, which all leads up to a beast of a solo that holds you by the soul galloping away in oblivion.

Half Full Glass Of Wine comes accompanied by a video directed by creative minds Special Problems (Cut Off Your Hands, Mercy Arms) who has created the perfect trippy realm for you to get lost in. Hummingbirds  flutter around a sumo wrestler, monkeys bounce off of cannons and dance upon their fiery discharge, dogs jump at floating ships on the horizon like possessed beasts, and more.

All in all, a fascinating visual and auditory treat.
