E D C D
When I was a young man and never been kissed
Bm E
I got to thinking over what I had missed
E D C D
Got me a girl and I kissed her and then
Bm E
Oh, Lord, I kissed her again
G D C Bm E
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
G D C Bm E
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
I asked her would she marry and be my sweet wife
And we would be so happy all of our lives
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man and then
Oh, Lord, she gave me her hand
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
I worked mighty hard and so did my wife
We worked hand in hand to make a good life
There was corn in the fields and wheat in the bins and I was
Oh, Lord, the father of twins
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Our children numbered just about four
They all had sweethearts a-knocking at the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate, I was
Oh, Lord, granfather of eight
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Now I am old and ready to go
I get to thinking what happened a long time ago
I had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain, but
Oh, Lord, I'd do it again
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
Oh..... kisses sweeter than wine
