Story Behind the Song
Performed live in concert, October 1998, at a World Wildlife Fund benefit concert.
Lyrics
Lugubrious and mellow....
What do you get when you cross a vignette with a vine?
You get wine!
Soft melodious, red or white
Out of sight
Bacchus is back, with a sweet taste of divinity
Wild and free, with essence of life
Nature's dance
Set the stage for romance
Pasta or fish, or with whatever you wish
Intoxicate me, while I breathe
The Glorious Grape!
Bring some Merlot, wherever you go
Pinot Noir, if it's really far away
Chardonnay, Cabernet
The beautiful Burgundy
"Waiter, could you bring us some more Chablis?"
Zinfandel really goes down well
Sparkling Wine, sublime, insane
and if it isn't from France, don't call it Champagne!
What do you get when you cross a vignette with a vine?
You get wine!
