Song facts

One More Kiss” is a song by Paul McCartney and Wings from the band’s 1973 album, Red Rose Speedway. From paulmccartney.com, November 26, 2018:

Mary was three or four around this time, so just a little kid. And you know how fathers often fuss over their kids? So I was fussing over her, she was a really cute baby. And I’m fussing away going, ‘Give me a kiss. Come on, give me a kiss!’ And she’d get fed up with me and sort of go: ‘Dad. Alright. But only one more kiss.’ So I got one more kiss… and a song! It suggested a country and western thing. And I was thinking that when we just listened back to it. A country singer should cover it!

Lyrics

Only one more kiss
I didn't mean to hurt you little girl
Let's make it one to remember
Only one more kiss

I said a foolish thing last night
I didn't think you'd take it bad
But now I'm on my way again
And just before I go

Only one more kiss
I never mean to hurt you little girl
Let's make it one to remember
Only one more kiss

Somebody's built a home for us
Someday we'll see it standing there
But like the wind that has to blow
I must be on my way

Only one more kiss, I never mean to hurt you little girl
Let's make it one to remember, only one more kiss
Well only one more kiss
