E
I would try my finger and I would try my hand
                     E7
At any fool game in this man's land
     A7                                    E
But don't you talk about this-a friend of mine,
         B7                      A                E7
I ain't never been let down and you'd be wastin' time.

I would scratch and steal, I would maim a man
I would even run the bounty across the other county
So don't you talk about this here friend of mine
I gave it all of my money, but it makes me feel fine

E
Yeah, I know you won't give me no peace of mind,
                                E7                 A7
Try to understand I just wanna feel good all the time.
                                           E
Don't you talk about a dear old friend of mine,
         B7
Well, I know that you are sweet and more than double fine.
B7
Everybody said you oughta marry that rich man down the line,
B7
But if I had to make a choice I wouldn't change my mind.
        A                               E        A     E
Honey, you just ain't as sweet as my strawberry wine.

Yeah, You caught me when I's down a-sleepin' in the park
Climbin' up the walls and laughin' in the dark
But I heard you been talkin' about a dear old friend of mine
Never tasted anything as sweet as my strawberry wine
