I left the old farm down in Texas and bummed all around for a time
Then one day I found myself staring at a sign that read Sunset and Wine
The big cars and the beautiful women put beautiful thoughts in my mind
I decided to be a great actor on the corner of Sunset and Wine
Then a man with a cigar approached me and he put his face right to mine
And declared a great star hit this cover on the corner of Sunset and Wine
[ ac.guitar - harmonica ]
Well I thought he was right for a while for the band seemed to thrill with each line
And they put my name in the sidewalk near the corner of Sunset and Wine
Now six wives and six divorces later I'm down to one very thin dime
And I wish I was back home in Texas and I'd never seen Sunset and Wine
[ harmonica ]
I wish I'd never seen Sunset and Wine
