Kisses Sweeter than Wine

Lyrics

[Chorus] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 1] When I was a young man and never been kissed I got to thinking over what I had missed Found me a woman, I kissed her and then Oh Lord, I kissed her again [Chorus] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 2] He asked me would I marry and be his sweet wife And we would be so happy the all of our life He begged and he pleaded like a natural man And then, oh Lord, I gave him my hand [Chorus] Oh-oh, kissеs sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweetеr than wine [Banjo Solo] [Chorus] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 3] I worked mighty hard and so did my wife Working hand in hand to make a good life Corn in the field, wheat in the bin I was, oh Lord, the father of twins [Chorus] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 4] 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] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 5] Now we are old and ready to go We got to thinkin' what happened a long time ago We had a lotta kids, trouble and pain But, oh Lord, we'd do it again [Chorus] Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh-oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Outro] I have to admit It's almost a relief to have this thing finally out of the closet Johnny needs a transfusion They take blood from his finger (Oh-oh) And pump it into his heart (Kisses sweeter than wine) What to do? (Oh-oh) Nobody wants to (Kisses sweeter than wine) But we have to call Dr. Grey What to do? (Oh-oh) Nothing—just love (Kisses sweeter than wine)
