One Mint Julep - Charles James[00:00:00]
One early morning as I was walking[00:00:07]
I met a woman we started talking[00:00:10]
I took her home to get a few nips[00:00:13]
But all I had was a mint julep[00:00:17]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:00:20]
I don't remember just how I started[00:00:27]
I only know that we should have parted[00:00:30]
I stole a kiss and then another[00:00:34]
I didn't mean to take it further[00:00:37]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:00:41]
The lights were burning low there in the parlor[00:00:47]
When through the kitchen door up popped her father[00:00:50]
He said I saw you when you kissed my daughter[00:00:54]
Better wed her right now or face a slaughter[00:00:57]
I didn't know just what I was doing[00:01:01]
I had to marry of face ruin[00:01:04]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:08]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:11]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:01:14]
Now I don't want to bore you with my troubles[00:01:42]
But from now on I'll be thinking double[00:01:45]
I'm through with flirting and drinking whiskey[00:01:48]
I got six extra children from a-getting frisky[00:01:51]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:56]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:01:59]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:02:02]
A mint julep a mint julep[00:02:06]
One mint julep was the cause of it all[00:02:09]
