Tommy James and The Shondells

Songtekst

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
You hear them marching any more
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

And everybody's gonna feel so fine
Drinking sweet cherry wine
Yes, they will

Watch the mountain
Turn to dust and blow away
Oh no, 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

Drink it right down
Pass it all around
People don't you know
The cup is running over

Yeah, yeah, yeah
