Eric Burdon and War-Spill the Wine lyrics

Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
    
 
  
  I was once out strolling  
 one very hot summer`s day   
 
  
  When I thought I`d  
 lay myself down to rest   
 
  
  in a big  
 field of tall grass   
 
  
  I lay there in the sun  
 and felt it caressing my face   
 
  
    
 
  
  And I fell asleep and dreamed   
 
  
  I dreamed I was  
 in a Hollywood movie   
 
  
  And that I was  
 the star of the movie   
 
  
  This really blew my  
 mind, the fact that me,   
 
  
  an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome   
 
  
  should be the star  
 of a Hollywood movie   
 
  
    
 
  
  But there I was, I was taken to  
 a place, the hall of the mountain kings   
 
  
  I stood high upon a  
 mountain top, naked to the world   
 
  
  In front of every  
 kind of girl, there was   
 
  
  black ones, round ones,  
 big ones, crazy ones...   
 
  
    
 
  
  Out of the  
 middle came a lady   
 
  
  She whispered in  
 my ear something crazy   
 
  
  She said:   
 
  
    
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
    
 
  
  (spoken:)   
 
  
    
 
  
  I thought to myself  
 what could that mean   
 
  
  Am I going crazy or  
 is this just a dream   
 
  
  Now, wait a minute   
 
  
  I know I`m lying in  
 a field of grass somewhere   
 
  
  so it`s all in my head   
 
  
  and then.. I heard  
 her say one more time:   
 
  
    
 
  
  (sung:)   
 
  
    
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
    
 
  
    
 
  
  (spoken:)   
 
  
  I could feel hot flames  
 of fire roaring at my back   
 
  
  As she disappeared,  
 but soon she returned   
 
  
  In her hand was a bottle  
 of wine, in the other, a glass   
 
  
  She poured some of the wine  
 from the bottle into the glass   
 
  
  And raised it to her lips   
 
  
  And just before she  
 drank it, she said:   
 
  
    
 
  
  (sung:)   
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that pearl,  
 Spill the wine and take that pearl   
 
  
  Spill the wine and take that  
 pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
