Got drunk drinking Gallo port wine, my first experience with wine, gave me a good case of the "dry heaves". Sorta nipped my taste for wine in the
bud.

LOL. Similar thing happened to me while in college, the first time I got drunk.  It was on Mateus; to this day, I avoid pink AND red wine.

It was OK -- a little too "country" for me. I liked the Belairs' better. (It didn't make ME feel old.) 
What the H is white port anyhow? Never saw such a thing? (And never heard a WPLJ song either, before reading this thread.)

Port is a fortified wine....can be good and found on the liquor store shelves next to the Sherrys.
I would have to believe the White Port of the song was a domestic product and had it's clientele in Harlem and similar locales.

Yes, I drink port, on occasion. But not white port.

They may have it tucked away in a discreet location. Joe wouldn't want to display riot-fuel out in the open.

When I got to Sacramento in '64, noticed one of those local winery tasting rooms and got roped into buying a gallon of local sherry. Me and a buddy
proceeded to drink that gallon in one sitting in the yard in about 104 degree weather. Next few days, every time a had a drink of water, I was drunk
all over again. Tough stuff.

That is my favorite Mexican Red! I buy a lot of it while in Mulege. You can also get it at Saul's and Ayleth (the orange store).

Lambert, Hendricks and Ross, circa 1950s:
My wife got tired a' me runnin 'round, so she tried to keep me home-
Well, she broke my nose and hid my clothes, but I continued to roam.
Then she finally hit my weak spot - threatened to throw my bottle out
Well, from the basement to the rooftop, everybody could hear me shout...
Chorus: Gimme that wine (Unhand that bottle) (3 times)
'Cause I can't cut loose without my juice.
Gotta have hot lucy when I go walkin' y'know.
Well, one day while crossin the avenue, a big car knocked me down.
While I was stretched out tyin' up traffic and crowds came from blocks
around
Now the po-lice were searchin my pockets, before they sent me to the
funeral parlor,
But when one o' those cops took my bottle, Jack, I jumped straight up
and commenced to hollar
Chorus: Gimme that wine (Unhand that bottle) (3 times)
'Cause I can't get well without Muskatel
I only drink for medicinal purposes anyway
Well, now, one real dark and dreary night as I was staggerin' home t'
bed,
Well, a bandit jumped from the shadows and put a blackjack 'side my
head.
That cat took my watch, my ring, my money, And I didn't make a sound,
but when he reached 'n got my bottle, you could hear me for blocks
around
Chorus: Gimme that wine (Unhand that bottle) (3 times)
Beat m' head outta shape, but leave my grape.
Watch, ring and money ain't nothin' but don mess with my wine, JIm.
Well one day my house caught fire while I was layin' down sleepin' off a
nap
An' when I woke up everything was burnin' with a pop an' a crackle an' a
snap.
Now the fireman chopped up my TV set and tore my apartment apart,
But when he raised his axe to my bottle, I screamed with all my heart...
Chorus: Gimme that wine (Unhand that bottle) (3 times)
So I can drink one toast before I roast.
No sense goin' out half baked, Might as well be Alll tore up
You can take all those Hollywood glamor girls- Lana Turner, Rita
Hayworth,
Bridget Bardot, n' Lucille Ball,
and all them chicks 'n line 'em upside the wall
Put a GIGANTIC jug beside 'em, n' tell me to take my choice.
Well, there'd be no doubt which one I chose, the minute I raised my
voice.
Chorus: Gimme that wine (Unhand that bottle) (3 times)
Well those chicks look fine, but I love my wine.
Now some folks like money, some like to dance and dine,
But I'll be happy If you give me that wine

That sounds brutal...reminds me of the tequila parties in college where we invented the Baja 1000---half shot of tequila with half a shot of grain
alcohol....sometimes I wonder how we made it through those days....what fun, but what gargantuan hangovers!

It loses something in the translation, without my knowing the tune....
