Songtexte Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - Pete Seeger , Weavers

Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine

When I was a young man and never been kissed
I got to thinkin' over what I had missed
I got me a girl, I kissed her and then
Oh, Lord, I kissed her again

Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine

He asked me would I marry and be his sweet wife
And we would be so happy all of our life
He begged and he pleaded like a natural man
And then, oh, Lord, I gave him my hand

Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine

I worked mighty hard and so did my wife
Workin' hand in hand to make a good life
With corn in the field and wheat in the bins
Then, oh, Lord, I was the father of twins

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Our children numbered just about four
They all had sweethearts a-knockin' on the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate
I was, oh, Lord, the grandmother of eight

Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine

Now we are old and ready to go
We get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain
But, oh, Lord, we'd do it again

Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, oh, kisses sweeter than wine

Oh, oh, oh, oh
