My first taste of love oh bittersweet
Green on the vine
Like Strawberry wine
Deana Carter
Bottle of wine
Fruit of the vine
When you gonna let me get sober
We've got a 100 gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine

Like the branches of a vine
That intertwine
-"Where Do You Start?"
