Lyrics

[Refrain] 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 thinkin' over what I had missed Got me a girl, I kissed her and then Oh, Lord, I kissed her again [Refrain] 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 all of our life He begged, and he pleaded like a natural man And then, oh, Lord, I gave him my hand hand [Refrain] Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 3] I worked mighty hard and so did my wife Workin' hand-in-hand to make a good life Corn in the field and wheat in the bin I was, oh Lord, the father of twins [Refrain] Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Our children numbered just about four They all had sweethearts knockin' on the door They all got married, and they didn't hesitate I was, oh Lord, the grandmother of eight [Refrain] Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine [Verse 5] Now, we are 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 [Refrain] Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine
