Mother liked her white wine
she'd have a glass or two
almost every single night
after her day was through
san se chardonnay chaiblie
pinot gris jiot

just to get the glow
you've got to take the edge off
if you wanna get the...
mother liked her white wines
she'd have a glass or three
we'd sat out on the screen porch
white winos mam and me
we'd talk about her childhood
recap my career
when we got to my father
that was when I'd switch to beer
we got to the old man
and I'd always switched to
mother liked her white wine.
