We drank Kalimotxo in the morning We were back in bed by the afternoon Her skin just like the Basque country Kissed by sun and the salty air I went back to Tennessee When she took a husband by the rising sea In a boat they raised a family Just like the ocean she never belonged to me We drank kalimotxo in the morning We were back in bed by the afternoon Her skin just like the Basque country Kissed by sun and the salty air As I age my memories fade Yet red wine and coca cola stains Stay on my mind and on my teeth Like the lips of red Spanish vintage We drank kalimotxo in the morning We were back in bed by the afternoon Her skin just like the Basque country Kissed by sun and the salty air I need something with less sweet a taste Lovers memories replaced And bitter thoughts are what remains And bitter thoughts are what remains
