Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

Lyrics

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
