Lyrics: Oho kisses sweeter than wine Oho kisses sweeter than wine When I was a young man never been kissed I got to thinking it over what I had missed So I got me a girl I kissed her and then Oh Lord, I kissed her again He asked me to marry and to be his sweet wife And we would be so happy all of our life He begged and he pleaded like a natural man And then oh lord I gave him my hand I worked mighty hard and so did my wife WorkinŽ hand in hand to have a good life We had corn in the field and wheat in the bins And then oh Lord I was the father of twins Our children numbered just about four And they all had sweethearts knockinŽat the door They all got married and they didn't hesitate I was oh Lord the grandmother of eight Now we are old and ready to go I get to thinkinŽ what happened a long time ago We had lots of kids, trouble and pain But oh Lord we'd do it again Oho kisses sweeter than wine Oho kisses sweeter than wine |
