Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

When I was a young man and never been kissed I got to thinking it over what I had missed. I got me a girl, I kissed her and then Oh lord, I kissed her again. Chorus: Oh, kisses sweeter than wine, Oh, kisses sweeter than wine I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife, And we would be so happy the rest of our lives. I begged and I pleaded like a natural man, And then, oh lord, she gave me her hand. (chorus) I worked mighty 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, I was, oh lord, the father of twins. (chorus) Our children they numbered just about four, They all had sweethearts knockin' at the door. They all got married and they didn't hesitate; I was, oh lord, the grandmother of eight. (chorus) Now that we're 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 again. (chorus)
