Grapes On A Vine Lyrics & Chords By Betty Wright

Daddy always told me to be real
Daddy always said that I should say just what I feel
People they will judge you 'cause they just don't understand
You're in it for the long ride, you don't just give up on a man

And like everyone woman, who's been through the fire as well
We all got a story, have a break to tell yeah
People they will judge you 'cause they just can't comprehend
You're in it for the long ride, you don't just give up on a friend

Everyone has moved on, gone, to where the sunshine long in time
We're still standing, though some may think we lost our minds
We share the field, I'll let the seed divide
It's just that we're so different
Makes our place a little harder to find

Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Might be bitter, it gets better with time

Mama always said that it's okay to dream
Mama always warned me, things ain't always what they seems
People they will judge you, leave you sitting on a [unverified]
Remember it's a long ride, just don't give up on yourself

And like every who wants to make his [unverified]
We all got a secret, hidden in our hearts, yeah
People they will judge us 'cause they just don't care to see
We're in it for the long ride, just don't give up on you and me

Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Might be bitter, it gets better with time

Grapes on a wine, ain't nothing sweet
You gotta pay the price, just keep your receipt
I can make the world have a seat at my feet
And I come from New Orleans where the water too deep

Money brings problems, the funny thing about it
Everybody want it, want it till they got it
Sometimes I forget and put my trouble in my pockets
Then hang up my pants now I got monsters in my closet

Get right with me, miss right with me, die hard
I got too much life in me, shades on, I'm seeing past at
Bitter sweet wine, where your glass at
Toast you haters all ghost, I make you all see

You need a full dose
And my mama told me do me
And stay away from that tree because

Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Grapes on a vine, don't always make sweet wine
Might be bitter, it gets better with time
