L.A. in the summer of '69,
I went downtown, and bought me some wine.
I wasted my head on a bottle of juice
And now the grape wont cut me loose
Well, I'm a wino man, well don't you know who I am?
Great god almighty don't you know I'm a wino man!

36, 24, hips about 30.
I seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty.
She looked over at me, and she raised her thumb.
And said "Jam down the road, you funky-ass bum!"
Well, I'm a wino man, well don't you know who I am?
Great god almighty don't you know that I'm a wino man!

I went to the country,
And while I was gone,
I lost control of my body functions,
On a roller-headed lady's front lawn.
I'm so ashamed, but I'm a wino man and I can't help myself.

I been drinkin' all night 'til my eyes got red.
Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head.
Bugs in my zoot suit have me scratchin' like a dog.
Can't stand no water, and I stink like a hog.

Gimme a five dollar bill, and an overcoat too.
Gimme a five dollar bill, and an overcoat too.
A five dollar bill, and an overcoat too,
I wanna five dollar bill, and a Florscheim shoe.
I wanna five dollar bill
Five dollar, etc.
