作词 : Kate Rusby 作曲 : Kate Rusby Diogenes surly and proud He started at the tearaway youth He delighted in wine, wine that was good Oh, because in good wine there was truth
Oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings
Democritus' wine was well stored With wine he suffered no wrath And when he was drunk, as drunk as a bird At those who were sober he'd laugh
And oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings
Copernicus had wine in his veins Oh, it made his philosophy real Then fancied the world, just like his brains Turned round like a chariot wheel
And oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings
Aristotle that master of arts Had been but a dance without wine Oh, for what we ascribe, ascribe to his parts Was due to the juice of the vine
And oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings
Old Plato was reckoned divine Who wisely, to kindness was prone But had it not been down to good wine His merit had never been known
Oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings
Oh, for good wine Oh, for the pleasure it brings If it wasn't for wine, we couldn't sing Of philosophers, poets and kings Of philosophers and poets and kings
