Red, Red Wine and Cheatin' Songs
Heartache Poured, Red Wine Soared
Lyrics
Red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Expressing the combination of red wine and songs about cheating.
Lately this bar room's where I call my home
Describing the bar as the current place of residence or solace.
Somewhere, somehow, my baby went wrong
Speculating that the singer's partner went astray or made a mistake.
Now it's red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Reiterating the theme of red wine and songs about infidelity.
For ten long years, not one single drop
Highlighting a period of abstinence from drinking for ten years.
Twelve months later, well I haven't stopped
Indicating a relapse into drinking after twelve months of sobriety.
I'm covering the misery of a good love grown cold
Conveying the singer's attempt to mask the pain of a failed love.
And losing what's left of my mind and soul to that
Describing the emotional toll of losing one's mind and soul.
Red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Repeating the theme of red wine and songs about cheating.
Lately this bar room's where I call my home
Reemphasizing the bar as the singer's current refuge or dwelling.
Somewhere, somehow, my baby went wrong
Revisiting the notion that the singer's partner went astray or made a mistake.
Now it's red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Reiterating the theme of red wine and songs about infidelity.
Cigarette smoke, powder and pain
Mentioning elements like cigarette smoke, powder, and pain in the bar setting.
Can't make up for what is and what ain't
Conveying that these elements cannot compensate for the reality of what is and what isn't.
When the truth starts to rumble and it starts to roar
Referring to a moment when the truth becomes evident and overwhelming.
Then I ask the barmaid to pour me some more of that
Requesting the barmaid for more red wine to cope with the truth.
Red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Reiterating the theme of red wine and songs about cheating.
Lately this bar room's where I call my home
Reemphasizing the bar as the singer's current refuge or dwelling.
Somewhere, somehow, my baby went wrong
Revisiting the notion that the singer's partner went astray or made a mistake.
Now it's red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Reiterating the theme of red wine and songs about infidelity.
Somewhere, somehow, my baby went wrong
Repeating the idea that the singer's partner made a mistake leading to the current situation.
Now it's red, red wine and cheatin' songs
Reiterating the theme of red wine and songs about cheating.
