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 |
