Kisses Sweeter Than Wine |
| Well, when I was a young man never been kissed |
| I got to thinkin' it over how much I had missed |
| So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then, and then |
| Oh, lordy, well I kissed 'er again |
| CHORUS |
| Because she had kisses sweeter than wine |
| She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine |
| (Sweeter than wine) |
| Well I asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife |
| I told her we’d be so happy for the rest of our life |
| I begged and I pleaded like a natural man |
| And then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand |
| CHORUS |
| Well we worked very hard both me and my wife |
| Workin' hand-in-hand to have a good life |
| We had corn in the field and wheat in the bin |
| And then, whoops oh lord, I was the father of twins |
| CHORUS |
| Well our children they numbered just about four |
| And they all had a sweetheart a’knockin' on the door |
| They all got married and they wouldn’t hesitate |
| I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight |
| CHORUS |
| Well now that I’m old and I’m a’ready to go |
| I get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago |
| Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain |
| But then, whoops oh lordy, well I’d do it all again |
| Because she had kisses sweeter than wine |
| She had, mmmkissessweeterthanwine |
