(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... [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/jackson_browne/kisses_sweeter_than_wine.html ] 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...
