lirik lagu jimmie rodgers – kisses sweeter than wine
kisses sweeter than wine
-words by paul campbell and music by huddie ledbetter
-originally a # 19 hit for the weavers in 1951
well, when i was a young man never been kissed
i got to thinkin’ it over how much i had missed
so i got me a girl and i kissed her and then, and then
oh, lordy, well i kissed ‘er again
chorus
because she had kisses sweeter than wine
she had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(sweeter than wine)
well i asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife
i told her we’d be so happy for the rest of our life
i begged and i pleaded like a natural man
and then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand
chorus
well we worked very hard both me and my wife
workin’ hand-in-hand to have a good life
we had corn in the field and wheat in the bin
and then, whoops oh lord, i was the father of twins
chorus
well our children they numbered just about four
and they all had a sweetheart a’knockin’ on the door
they all got married and they wouldn’t hesitate
i was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight
chorus
well now that i’m old and i’m a’ready to go
i get to thinkin’ what happened a long time ago
had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
but then, whoops oh lordy, well i’d do it all again
because she had kisses sweeter than wine
she had, mmmkissessweeterthanwine
