Pd... Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Pd... ♂ When I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how much I had missed
So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then, and then
Oh, lordy, well I kissed her again
Pd... Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Pd... ♀ He asked me would I'll be marry and to be his sweet wife
Then we would be so happy for the rest of our life
He begged then he pleaded like a natural man
And then, whoops oh lordy, well I gave him my hand
Pd... Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Pd... ♂ Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Working 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
Pd... {Instrum}
Pd... ♀ Our 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
I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight
Pd... Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Pd... ♂♀ Now we're old and ready to go
I get to thinking what happened a long time ago
We had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, whoops oh lordy, well I'd do it all again
Pd... Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh...Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh...Oh, Oh...Oh, ...Pd.
