Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - The Weavers

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

Kisses sweeter than wine

Well when I was a young man never been kissed

I got to thinking 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 ever again

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 we'd 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

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She kisses sweeter than wine

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

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She kisses sweeter than wine

Well our children they numbered just about four

And they all had a sweetheart a'knocking on the door

They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate

I was whoops oh lord the grandfather of eight

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She kisses sweeter than wine

Well now that I'm old and I'm already 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 whoops oh lordy well I'd do it all again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had mmm kisses sweeter than wine

Kisses sweeter than wine
