Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - Eddy Arnold

Well when I was a young man and never been kissed

I got to thinkin' it over how much I’d missed

So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then

And then oh Lordy well I kissed her again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine

She had uh uh kisses sweeter than wine

Well I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife

I told her we’d be so happy for the rest of our life

I begged her and pleaded like a natural man

And then whups oh Lordy well she gave me her hand

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine…

Well we worked very hard both me and my wife

A working hand in hand to have a good life

We had corn in the fields and whaet in the bins

And then whups oh Lord I was the father of twins

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine…

Well our children then numbered just about four

And they all had the sweethearts a knockin' at the door

They all got married and they wouldn’t hesitate

I was whups oh Lord the grandfather of eight

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine…

Well now that I’m old and ready to go

We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago

Had a lotta kids a lotta trouble and pain

But then whups oh Lord we’d do it all again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine…
