Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

There once was a young man who'd never been kissed

He's got to thinkin' it over how much Ihe had missed

So he got me a girl and he kissed her and then, and then

Oh, lord, well he kissed 'er again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine

Well he asked her to marry and to be his good wife

He told her we'd be so happy for the rest of his life

He begged and he pleaded like a natural man

And then, whoops oh lord, well she gave him her hand

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

Well their 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

He was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight

Well now that he's old and he's already to go

He 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 he'd do it all again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

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