OLD DOGS, CHILDREN AND WATERMELON WINE

          G                             C              Am
1.	I WAS SITTING IN MIAMI POURING BLENDED WHISKY DOWN
                   C                G             D               G
	WHEN THIS OLD GREY BLACK GENTLEMAN WAS CLEANING  UP THE LOUNGE
           G                              C               Am
	THERE WASN'T ANYONE AROUND BUT THIS OLD MAN AND  ME
             D                                C        D   G
	THE GUY WHO TENDED BAR WAS WATCHING IRONSIDES ON  TV 
          G                          C            Am
	UNINVITED, HE SAT DOWN AND OPENED UP HIS MIND
            C             G             D          G
	ON OLD DOGS AND CHILDREN, AND WATERMELLON WINE.

2.	HAVE YOU EVER HAD A DRINK OF WATERMELLON WINE HE ASKED
	HE TOLD ME ALL ABOUT IT THOUGH I DIDN'T ANSWER  BACK
	AIN'T BUT THREE THINGS IN LIFE THAT'S WORTH A SOLITARY DIME
	THAT'S OLD DOGS AND CHILDREN, AND WATERMELLON  WINE.

3.	HE SAID WOMEN THINK ABOUT THEMSELVES WHEN THEIR MENFOLK AREN'T AROUND
	AND FRIENDS ARE HARD TO FIND WHEN THEY DISCOVER  THAT YOU'RE DOWN
	HE SAID I TRIED IT ALL WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND IN MY  NATURAL PRIME
	NOW IT'S OLD DOGS AND CHILDREN AND WATERMELLON  WINE.

4.	HE SAID OLD DOGS CARE ABOUT YOU EVEN WHEN YOU MAKE MISTAKES
	GOD BLESS LITTLE CHILDREN WHILE THEY'RE STILL TOO YOUNG TO HATE
        AS HE MOVED AWAY I GOT MY PEN AND COPIED DOWN  THAT LINE
	ON OLD DOGS AND CHILDREN AND WATERMELLON WINE.

5.	I HAD TO CATCH A PLANE UP TO ATLANTA THE NEXT DAY
	AS I LEFT FOR MY ROOM I SAW HIM PICKING UP MY CHANGE
	THAT NIGHT I DREAMED IN PEACEFULL SLEEP OF SHADY SUMMER TIMES
        OF OLD DOGS AND CHILDREN AND WATERMELLON WINE.
