Tekst piosenki
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 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine 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 had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine Sweeter than wine 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 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine Sweeter than wine Well 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 Because she had kisses sweeter than wine She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine Sweeter than wine Well now that I'm old and I'm a'ready 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 I'd do it all again Because she had kisses sweeter than wine She had, mmm…kisses…sweeter…than…wine1933
