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

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, 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

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

Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oooooh, 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

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