Pd... 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 her again

Pd... Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Pd... 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 her and I pleaded like a natural man
And then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand

Pd... Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Pd... Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Working 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

Pd... 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

Pd... Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

Pd... Well now that I'm old and I'm a'ready to go
I get to thinking 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

Pd... Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine ...Pd.
...Pd...
