Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

(앨범: Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty - 2008)

Well, when I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinking 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 'er again

[CHORUS]
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)

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

[CHORUS]

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

[CHORUS]

Well our children they numbered just about four
And they all had a sweetheart a'knocking on the door
They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate
I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight

[CHORUS]

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