Nightcap
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They hung the grapes upon the line
In '51 or '52
And they could see the sun
Shining all over
They painted pictures of the vines
And placed them out in the open view
And they could see the sun
Shining all over
One more time for another one
This old line for another one
They sent transmissions through the wire
'Til they could feel a volt or two
And they could see the sparks
Flying all over
They took the grapes and made a fire
And poured them out a glass or two
And they could see the sparks
Flying all over
One more time for another one
This old line for another one
One more time for another one
This old line for another one
They hung the grapes upon the line
In '51 or '52
And they could see the sun
Shining all over
They painted pictures of the vines
And placed them out in the open view
And they could see the sun
Shining all over
One more time for another one
This old line for another one
One more time for another one
This old line for another one
