Well, 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 er again

CHORUS
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine

Well I asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife
I told her wed be so happy for the rest of our life
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man
And then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand

CHORUS

Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Workin 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

CHORUS

Well our children they numbered just about four
And they all had a sweetheart aknockin on the door
They all got married and they wouldnt hesitate
I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight

CHORUS

Well now that Im old and Im aready to go
I get to thinkin what happened a long time ago
Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, whoops oh lordy, well Id do it all again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmmkissessweeterthanwine
