Lyrics of
Summer Wine

Summer Wine is a collaboration between Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood, first released in 1967. The song speaks to seduction and surrender, using metaphors of summer wine and fruits to delve into themes of desire and loss. Hazlewood penned the track, aiming to capture a mood of romance and mystery.

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring.
My summer wine is really made from all these things.

I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled too.
A song that I had only sang to just a few.
She saw my silver spurs and said let's pass some time.
And I will give to you summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring.
My summer wine is really made from all these things.
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time.
And I will give to you summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.

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 line.
And then she gave to me more summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring.
My summer wine is really made from all these things.
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time.
And I will give to you summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.

When I woke up the sun was shining 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 cravin' for more summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring.
My summer wine is really made from all these things.
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time.
And I will give to you my summer wine.
Ohhh-oh summer wine.
I'd like to point out that Virgil Warner & Suzi Jane Hokom did a fantastic
version of this song, even better than the original in my opinion, alongside
