Kisses Sweeter than Wine  is a popular love song written by weavers in 1950 and a success for Jimmie Rodgers in 1957 and Frankie Vaughan in 1958. In his 1993 book, where are the flowers Gone Pete Seeger describes the long genesis of this song. Apparently, Irish folk musician Lead Belly heard Sam Kennedy performer in Greenwich Village singing the Irish traditional song  Down Drimmin  aka  Drimmen Dow  about a farmer and his cow died. Lead Belly song suited to her songs cow farmer,  If it were not for Dicky which he first time in 1937. Lead Belly is not a lack of rhythm, which was part of many free-flowing Irish songs, so it was more rhythmic piece, playing the chorus is a 12-string guitar.

Seeger was Lead Belly version of the song and its chords. When his team hit the Weavers version of Lead Belly  Goodnight Irene  in 1950, were searching for new material. Seeger and Lee Hays wrote new lyrics (Hays wrote to all the new ways, Seeger wrote again Chorus Lead Belly’s), which makes a love song. It was released in 1951 and registered with the weavers, June 12, 1951 New York City on Decca Records (catalog number 27670 [1]). Did  U.S. Hit Parade.
