Cherry Wine

[Produced by Salaam Remi]

[Chorus: Amy Winehouse]

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

I heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

Heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

And I'm alone, and I realize that when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

Yes, I'm alone, and I realize when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

[Verse 1: Nas]

I want someone who like the champagne I like, my a-alike

Someone to talk me off the bridge any day or night

She teach me how to live, she ain’t afraid of life

Not easily impressed with the rich and famous life

'Cause she done been there and heard all the rumors before

She loves art, she ride out with me on my music tour

She like the herb's natural medicine, she cookin' good

She tell me everything is cool when it ain't lookin' good

For real, the world so ill, yo, I want a girl so real

Who not after material wealth but get dough still

Or maybe an educator, a lady with etiquette

Who can be from out the hood or even work for the president

As long as there’s no selfishness

Yes, as long as her love for the people is deep-rooted and evident

You can be easily recruited, you’re heaven-sent

Your smile put me at ease

You’re the woman I need, but where is she?

[Chorus: Amy Winehouse]

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

I heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

Heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

And I'm alone, and I realize that when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

Yes, I'm alone, and I realize when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

[Verse 2: Nas]

I hate when people write me hostile texts

On account of my lifestyle's perception

Invade my personal life? Out of the question

What are they expectin'?

I be tryin' to reply and they never suppose I get my quiet time in?

They think forever I’m rollin' in dough, swimmin' in a pool of cash

God, wouldn’t they know or am I a fool to ask?

I’m well known, got people comin' at me mad

I had to tell homes, I don’t keep a cell phone, my bad

I drag off the L and try to silence it

The noise in my head, the curse of the talented

Strong communicator, vagabond

I'd gallivant around the Equator, if that would get me off the radar

It's so intense, I'm on my Lilo & Stitch

Pour my Pinot Grigio and Cris' with some lime, what is this?

An immaculate version of "Me & My Bitch" by Biggie

With all respect, 'cause you the only one that gets me

[Chorus: Amy Winehouse]

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

I heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

Heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

And I'm alone, and I realize that when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

Yes, I'm alone, and I realize when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

[Bridge: Nas]

Yeah, yeah, let’s pour some cherry wine

Everything’s good, everything’s fine

Yeah, yeah, we bring it every time

Yeah, pour a little cherry wine

Yeah, hey yo, Salaam

Yeah, I think they know the time

Everything’s good, everything’s fine

Yeah, pour a little cherry wine, yeah

Life is good, life is good, yeah

Life is good, no matter what, life is good

Life is good, life is good, yeah

No matter what, life is good

[Chorus: Amy Winehouse]

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

I heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

Where is he, the man who was just like me?

Heard he was hidin' somewhere I can't see

And I'm alone, and I realize that when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry

Yes, I'm alone, and I realize when I get home

I wanna go through my red and my cherry
