Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh,
I worked mighty hard and so did my wife; Working hand in hand to make a good life. Corn in 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 sweethearts knocking on the door. They all got married and they 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 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... kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses...
