Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

Lyrics

Well, when I was a young man and 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, Lord, well I kissed her again
 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
 She had, mm-mm, kisses sweeter than wine
 (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 I pleaded like a natural man
 And then, whoops! Oh Lord, well she gave me her hand
 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
 She had, mm-mm, kisses sweeter than wine
 (Sweeter than wine)
 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
 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
 She had, mm-mm, kisses sweeter than wine
 (Sweeter than wine)
 Well our children they numbered just about four
 And they all had a sweetheart a' knockin' at the door
 They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate
 I was, whoops! Oh Lord, the grandfather of eight
 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
 She had, mm-mm, kisses sweeter than wine
 (Sweeter than wine)
 Well now that I'm old, and I'm 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 Lord, well, I'd do it all again
 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
 She had, mm-mm, kisses sweeter than wine
