Kisses Sweeter Than Wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
When I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how I had missed
I got me a girl and I kissed her and then
Oh, lord, I kissed 'er again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
He asked me would I marry and be his sweet wife
Then we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
He begged daddy, pleaded like a natural man
And then, oh lord, I gave him my hand
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
I worked my day hard and so did my wife
Workin' hand-in-hand to make a good life
With corn in the field and wheat in the bins
Then, oh lord, I was the father of twins
Oh
Our children numbered just about four
They all had a sweetheart knockin' on the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate
I was, oh lord, the grandfather of eight
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Now that I'm old and ready to go
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain
But, oh Lord, we'd do it all again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
When I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how I had missed
I got me a girl and I kissed her and then
Oh, lord, I kissed 'er again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
He asked me would I marry and be his sweet wife
Then we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
He begged daddy, pleaded like a natural man
And then, oh lord, I gave him my hand
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
I worked my day hard and so did my wife
Workin' hand-in-hand to make a good life
With corn in the field and wheat in the bins
Then, oh lord, I was the father of twins
Oh
Our children numbered just about four
They all had a sweetheart knockin' on the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate
I was, oh lord, the grandfather of eight
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Now that I'm old and ready to go
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain
But, oh Lord, we'd do it all again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh
