He Gave Us the Wine to Taste Lyrics by Jonathan Richman

Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love

2004

He gave us the wine to taste
Not to talk about it
He gave us the wine to taste
And not to discuss
So lets taste it
So lets taste it
No lets criticize and waste it
He gave us the wine to taste it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So take a drink, take a drink
Don't talk about it babe
Try a drop
Try a drop
And stop if you want to stop
Don't criticize and waste it
He gave us the wine to taste it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
He gave us the wine to taste
Not to talk about it
He gave us the wine to taste
Not criticize
So lets taste it
So lets taste it
No lets criticize and waste it
He gave us the wine to taste it
Yeah Yeah Yeah
So take a drink, take a drink
Don't talk about it babe
Try a drop
Try a drop
And stop if you want to stop
Don't criticize and waste it
He gave us the wine to taste it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
