Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - Jackson Browne
(performed by jackson browne and bonnie raitt on the pete seeger tribute album where have all the flowers gone;1998) Jackson: When I was a young man I'd never been kissed; I got to thinking about what I had missed. I found a girl. I kissed her and then... Oh lord, I kissed her again. Together: Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Bonnie: He asked me to marry and be his sweet wife; 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. Together: Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses... Jackson: I worked mighty hard and so did my wife; Working hand in hand to make a good life. Corn in the field and wheat in the bins, and then... Oh lord, I was the father of twins. Together: Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses... Bonnie: 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! Together: Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses... Jackson: Now we are old and ready to go Thinking about what happened a long time ago. Bonnie: We had lots of kids and trouble and pain, but... Oh lord, we'd do it again. Together: Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses... Oooooh, kisses sweeter than wine. Oooooh, kisses...
