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

[Bono]
I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
and sang a song that I had sang just for a few
She saw my silver spurs and said let's pass some time
And I will give to you...summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh...summer wine

[Andrea]
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

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

[Bono]
My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to stand up but I could not find my feet
she reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me...more summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

[Andrea]
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

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

When we woke up, the sun was shining in our eyes
The silver spurs were gone, my head felt twice its size
She took my silver spurs, a dollar and a dime
And left us craving for.....more summer wine
Ohhh..summer wine...

Ohhh... Ohhh... Ohhh...

Ohhh... Ohhh... Ohhh... Ohhh...

This started out pretty good but the dude making sounds like a toad with a stomach ache ruins it.

I kinda like it, course I remember singing along with the Nancy Sinatra (with Lee Hazlewood) version as a kid ;-)

This is one is definitely NOT a keeper. Maudlin and schmaltzy and a discredit to Bono.

I'd love to hear this followed by "Corn Wine" by the Folksmen. :D

After listening to Bono sing Paint it Black, Because the Night and this one, I start believing he should stick to his own songs. Nothing wrong with the way The Corrs perform it, btw, but Bono isn't that convincing at all. He gets away with it because it's a lovely song and his name and fame, but otherwise?

This you gotta love - you can hear the roar when Bono comes on stage - a thoroughly great Summer song - and I'm saying that as someone who dislikes the Corrs - but this is beautiful!
