There once was a young man who'd never been kissed
He got to thinking it over how much he had missed
So he found a gal, he kissed her and then, well
wouldn't you know, he kissed her again

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

Her asked her to marry and be his good wife
And to make him happy the rest of his life
He begged and he pleased like a natural man
And wouldn't you know, she gave him a hand

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had - umm - umm - kisses sweeter than wine

He worked mighty hard and so did his wife
Working hand in hand to make a good life
There was corn in the fields and wheat in the winds
wouldn't you know, he was the father of twins

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had - umm - umm - kisses sweeter than wine

Their children numbered just about four
And they all had sweethearts knocking at the door
They all got married and didn't hesitate
Before long he was the grandfather of eight

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had - umm - umm - kisses sweeter than wine

Now he is old and ready to go
He gets to thinking what happened a long time ago
They have lots of kids and trouble and pain
But you can bet your life he? d do it again

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had - umm - umm - kisses sweeter than wine

it's clear to see, she had kisses sweeter than wine
