Oh it's funny how wine makes fools out of men around women
And it's funny how women love men till their money is goneAs I went down to Juarez town to buy my love a ring
I stopped me by the tavern where the painted woman sing
Says I I'll take one look inside but I'll not touch that wine
And in the morn I'll buy the ring and Mary will be mineOh it's funny how wine makes fools out of men around women
And it's funny how women love men while the wine flows on
It's funny how wine makes fools out of men around women
And it's funny how women love men till their money is goneI walked me in and sat me down beside the candle light
And a painted girl walked by and said are you alone tonight
I showed her all the money that would buy my Mary's ring
And soon the wine began to flow and we began to singNow I walk the streets of Juarez town with Mary on my mind
But every window I look me in there's painted girls and wine
I can't go on to Mary cause I don't have the right
So I'll stay here in Juarez town no matter what it bringsOh it's funny how wine...
