One Mint Julep - The Clovers[00:00:00]
One early mornin' as I was walkin[00:00:11]
I met a woman we started talkin[00:00:15]
I took her home to get a few nips[00:00:20]
But all I had was a mint julep[00:00:25]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:00:28]
I don't remember just how it started[00:00:38]
I only know that we should have parted[00:00:43]
I stole a kiss and then another[00:00:47]
I didn't mean to take it further[00:00:51]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:00:55]
The lights were burning low there in the parlor[00:01:04]
When through the kitchen door up popped her father[00:01:09]
He said "I saw you when you kissed my daughter[00:01:13]
Better wed her right now or face a slaughter[00:01:17]
I didn't know just what I was doin[00:01:22]
I had to marry or face ruin[00:01:28]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:32]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:36]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:01:41]
Now I don't want to bore you with my troubles[00:01:50]
But from now on I'll be thinkin' double[00:01:54]
I'm through with flirtin' and drinkin' whiskey[00:01:58]
I got six extra children from a-gettin' frisky[00:02:03]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:02:07]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:02:12]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:02:16]
