If I go before I'm old
Oh, brother of mine
Please don't forget me if I go

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground

If I die before my time
Sweet sister of mine
Please don't regret me if I die

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground
Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground

I'm on bended knees, I plead

Bartender, please, when I was young
I didn't think about it, now I can't get it out of my head
I'm on bended knee, father, please

If all of this gold should steal my soul away
Dear mother of mine, please redirect me
If there's gold

Bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
Came from the vine that strung Judas from the Devil's tree
Its roots deep, deep in the ground
Bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
Came from the vine that strung Judas from the Devil's tree
Its roots deep, deep in the ground

I'm on bended knees
Bartender, please
I'm on bended knees
Bartender, please
