When I was a young man and never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how much I had missed
I got me a girl, kissed her and then,
Oh, Lord, I kissed 'er again.
She had kisses sweeter than wine
Mmm, kisses sweeter than wine.
I asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife
We'd be so happy for the rest of our lives
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man
And then, oh Lord, she gave me her hand.
She had kisses sweeter than wine
Mmm, kisses sweeter than wine.
I worked very and so did my wife
Workin' hand-in-hand to have a good life
We had corn in the field and wheat in the bin
And then, oh Lord, I was the father of twins.
She had kisses sweeter than wine
Mmm, kisses sweeter than wine.
Our children numbered just about four
And they all had sweethearts knocking the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate
I was, Oh Lord, the grandfather of eight.
He had kisses sweeter than wine
Mmm, kisses sweeter than wine.
Well now I'm old and ready to go
I get to thinking what happened a long time ago
Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, Oh Lord, I'd do it all over again.
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
Mmm, kisses sweeter than wine.
