text: When I was a young man and never been kissed
  I got to thinking it over what I had missed
  I got me a girl, I kissed her and then
  Oh Lord, I kissed her again
  Chorus:
  Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
  Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
  I asked her to marry and be my sweet wife
  And we would be so happy the rest of our lives
  I begged and I pleaded like a natural man
  And then, Oh Lord, she gave me her hand
  I worked mighty hard and so did my wife
  Workin hand in hand to make a good life
  With corn in the field and wheat in the bins
  I was, Oh Lord, the father of twins
  Our children they numbered just about four
  They all had sweethearts knockin at the door
  They all got married and they didnt hesitate;
  I was, Oh Lord, the grandmother of eight
  Now that were old, and ready to go
  We get to thinkin what happened a long time ago
  We had a lot of kids, trouble and pain
  But, Oh Lord, Wed do it again
