[Verse 1: Jackson Browne]
When I was a young man I'd never been kissed
I got to thinking 'bout what I had missed
I found a girl, I kissed her and then
Oh Lord, I kissed her again
[Chorus: Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
[Verse 2: Bonnie Raitt]
He asked me to marry and be his sweet wife
That we would be happy all of our life
He begged and he pleaded like a natural man, and then
Oh Lord, I gave him my hand
[Chorus: Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses
[Verse 3: Jackson Browne, Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
I worked mighty hard and so did my wife
Working hand in hand to make a good life
With corn in the fields and wheat in the bins, and then
Oh Lord, I was the father of twins
[Chorus: Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses
[Verse 4: Bonnie Raitt]
Our children numbered just about four
And they all had sweethearts knocking on the door
They all got married and they didn't wait, I was
Oh Lord, a grandmother of eight
[Chorus: Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses
[Verse 5: Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Both]
Now we are old and ready to go
Thinking 'bout what happened a long time ago
We had lots of kids and trouble and pain, but
Oh Lord, we'd do it again
[Chorus: Jackson Browne & Bonnie Raitt]
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses
Oh, kisses sweeter than wine
Oh, kisses
