When I was a young man I'd never been kissed
I got to thinking over how much I missed.
I found a girl. I kissed her and then
Oh Lord, I kissed her again

She had, kisses sweeter than wine
She had umm, kisses sweeter than wine

Well I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife
We would be so happy for the rest of our life.
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man, and then
Oh Lord, she gave her my hand

She had, kisses sweeter than wine
She had umm, kisses sweeter than wine

I worked very hard both me and my wife
Working hand in hand to make a good life
Wirh corn in the field and wheat in the bins, and then
Oh Lord, I was the father of twins

She had, kisses sweeter than wine
She had umm, kisses sweeter than wine

Well now I'm an old man and ready to
I got a thinking what happened a long time ago
Had lots of kids and trouble and pain, but
Oh Lord, I'd do it again because

She had, kisses sweeter than wine
She had umm, kisses sweeter than wine

Sweeter than wine
Sweeter than wine...
