The Weavers feat. Leo Diamond & His Orchestra - Kisses Sweeter Than Wine Lyrics

Lyrics Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - The Weavers , Leo Diamond & His Orchestra



Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
When I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin′ it over how I had missed
I got me a girl and I kissed her and then
Oh, lord, I kissed her again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
He asked me would I marry and be his sweet wife
And we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
He begged daddy, pleaded like a natural man
And then, oh lord, I gave him my hand
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
Our children numbered just about four
They all had a sweetheart knockin' on the door
They all got married and they didn't hesitate
I was, oh lord, the grandfather of eight
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Now that I′m 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 all again
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh kisses sweeter than wine
Oh
