Swimmin' Toward Kisses Sweeter Than Wine

I boarded a Polaris and there was nothin' to kiss
When I got my orders they told me none of this

I avoided all those sailors who had a mind to be kissin
There's too much water to find what I've been missin'

Chorus

I know what I'm missin, what I left ashore
There was no kissin' today, or the day before

If I don't soon forget her kisses, I'm gonna jump overboard
I need me some kissin', do you hear me Lord?

Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, um, yum kisses sweeter than wine

Chorus

They wouldn't let me out, said there was an awful war
Said they might have to keep me, evermore

Before I enlisted I had me such a good life
Could kiss my own girl instead of another fellows' wife

Now I take my kissin' anywhere I can
The day I enlisted is when my troubles began
Cause she had kisses sweeter than wine
