Текст песни Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - Pete Seeger

When I was a young man I′d never been kissed
I got to thinking over what I had missed
Got me a girl I kissed her and then...

Oh lord, I kissed her again

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine

I asked she to marry and be his sweet wife
We be so happy— all of our life
I begged and he pleaded like a natural man, and then...

Oh lord, I gave him my hand

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine

I worked mighty hard and so did my wife
Working hand in hand to make a good life
Corn in the field and wheat in the bins, and then...

Oh lord, I was the father of twins

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine

Our children numbered just about four
And they all had sweethearts knocking on the door
They all got married and they didn't wait, I was...
Oh lord! a grandmother of eight!

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine

Now we are old and ready to go
Thinking about what happened a long time ago

We had lots of kids and trouble and pain, but...

Oh lord, we′d do it again

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine.
Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
