I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
In a big field of tall grass
I laid there in the sun and felt it caressing my face
As I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind
The fact that me an overfed long haired leaping gnome
Should be the star of a Hollywood movie, hmmm
But there I was
I was taken to a place
The hall of the mountain kings
I stood high by the mountain tops
Naked to the world
In front of
Every kind of girl
There was long one's, tall ones, short ones, brown ones,
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
Out of the middle, came a lady
She whispered in my ear
Something crazy
She said,
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
I thought to myself, what could that mean
Am I going crazy, or is this just a dream
Now wait a minute
I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere
So it's all in my head
And then I heard her say one more time
Spill the wine dig that girl
Spill the wine dig that girl
Spill the wine dig that girl
Spill the wine dig that girl
I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
As she disappeared, but soon she returned
In her hand was a bottle of wine
In the other a glass
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
And raised it to her lips
And just before she drank it, she said
Take the wine dig that girl
Spill the wine, dig that girl
Spill the wine, dig that girl
Spill the wine, dig that girl
Take that girl, yeah!
It's on girl, all you gotta do is spill that wine
Spill that wine, let me feel, let me feel hot, yeah! yeah!
Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine,
Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine,
Dig that girl!
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
In a big field of tall grass
I laid there in the sun and felt it caressing my face
As I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind
The fact that me an overfed long haired leaping gnome
Should be the star of a Hollywood movie, hmmm
But there I was
I was taken to a place
The hall of the mountain kings
I stood high by the mountain tops
Naked to the world
In front of
Every kind of girl
There was long one's, tall ones, short ones, brown ones,
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
Out of the middle, came a lady

Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl

Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine,
Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine,
Dig that girl!

"It's on girl, all you gotta do is spill that wine
spill that wine, let me feel, let me feel hot, yeah! yeah!"
The pearl is the clitoris.
Spill the wine - simply means to pour and drink wine .
Note: during a recording session the keyboard player came in drunk and spilled wine on the console . this is a fact . they moved to another studio . Eric was in another room playing around with HIS girlfriend that does the Spanish parts ( not Jimmy Hendrix's girl ) Obviously tripping on acid she was rambling off the lyrics while he was doing his thing with her .
Take that girl , take that pearl means to eat the pussy
From Harold Brown the drummer "We went back there and we put up a little tent, candlelight, and some wine back there. They were behind there, and Eric was doing things to her and making her talk."
the song is about celebrating women and their beauty .
"oh yeah, this song is about drugs"
no, it's about vaginas
seriously, learn what slang is, nobody has ever called heroin "pearl," pearl here refers to vaginas, this song is about getting a woman drunk, and then having sex with her
Source"Harold Brown" drummer for War in an interview
He is taken to the hall of the mountain kings . He stands naked to the world in front of every kind of girl . ( this is the first clue to the real meaning )
It means . " spill the wine " ( Drink the wine ) this is a term for drinking .
" Take that pearl " ( suck the dick . swallow the cum . take that pearl necklace ) I am guessing you all know what a pearl necklace is .
Mystery solved .
Everybody interprets a song in their own way, according to their life experiences. For me, the song is exactly what it's saying. He was walking, needed to rest, fell asleep in a field, started dreaming about all kinds of women, a spanish speaking lady comes to him in his dream, offers him a good time with wine, and his choice of any "pearl" that's there and take it.
Whether, he fell asleep because of smoking weed or other drugs is up to the individual listener's interpretation, but it doesn't say that in the song.
Peace.
