I walked in town on silver spurs that jingle too,
a song that I had only singed to just a few.
She saw my silver spurs and said 'let's pass some time
and I will give to you
summerwine
(Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
and I wil give to you
summerwine)
My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to get up but I couldn't find my feet
She reassured me with an unfamiliar lie
and then she gave to me
more summerwine...
When I woke up the sun was shinning in my eyes,
my silver spurs were gone, my head felt twice its size
She took my silver spurs, a dollar and a dime
and left me craving for
more summerwine
