Arlo Guthrie & Pete Seeger - Kisses Sweeter Than Wine lyrics

When I was a young man I'd never been kissed I got to thinking about what I had missed I found a girl. I kissed her and then... Oh lord, I kissed her again Oh kisses sweeter than wine Oh kisses sweeter than wine He asked me to marry and be his sweet wife We would be happy -- all of our life He begged and he pleaded like a natural man, and then... Oh lord, I gave him my hand Oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, kisses... 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 Oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, kisses... 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 Oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, kisses... 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 Oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, kisses... Oh, kisses sweeter than wine Oh, kisses...
