Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

Well, when I was a young man and never been kissed

I got to thinkin' it over, how much I'd missed

So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then

And then oh Lordy, well I kissed her again.

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had uh, uh, kisses sweeter than wine.

Well, I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife

I told her we'd be so happy for the rest of our life

I begged her and pleaded like a natural man

And then whups oh Lordy, well she gave me her hand.

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine...

Well, we worked very hard both me and my wife

A working hand in hand to have a good life

We had corn in the fields and whaet in the bins

And then whups oh Lord I was the father of twins

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had uh, uh, kisses sweeter than wine.

Well, our children then numbered just about four

And they all had the sweethearts a knockin' at the door

They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate

I was whups oh Lord the grandfather of eight.

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had uh, uh, kisses sweeter than wine.

Well, now that I'm old and ready to go

We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago

Had a lotta kids a lotta trouble and pain

But then whups oh Lord we'd do it all again.

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had uh, uh, kisses sweeter than wine...
