Tommy James and Tommy James & the Shondells - Sweet Cherry Wine

(Come on)
Everyone, we got to get together now
Oh yeah, love's the only thing that matters anyhow
And the beauty of life can only survive
If we love one another

Oh yeah, yesterday my friends were marching out to war
Oh yeah, listen now, we ain't a-marching anymore
No, we ain't gonna fight
Only God has the right
To decide who's to live and die

He gave us sweet cherry wine
So very fine
We'll drink it right down, pass it all around
So stimulating, so intoxicating
Sweet cherry wine
(To all day and night)
And everybody's gonna feel so fine
Drinking sweet cherry wine
Yes, they will

Watch the mountain turn to dust and blow away
Oh, Lord, you know there's got to be a better way
And the old masquerade is a no soul parade
Marching through the ruins of time

To save us, He gave us sweet cherry wine
So very fine
We'll drink it right down, pass it all around
So stimulating, so intoxicating
Sweet cherry wine
Everybody's gonna feel so fine
Drinking sweet cherry wine

Oh, sweet cherry wine
So very fine
We'll drink it right down, pass it all around
So stimulating, so intoxicating
Sweet cherry wine
Come on, drink it with your brother
Trust in one another
Yeah, yeah, we need each other

Sweet cherry wine
You drink it right down, pass it all around
People, don't you know the cup is running over?

Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Oh)
(Come on, come on, hey)
