My Grandfather's Clock - The Shelton Brothers[00:00:00]

My grandfather's clock[00:00:08]

Was too large for the shelf[00:00:10]

So it stood ninety years on the floor[00:00:12]

It was taller by half[00:00:16]

Than the old man himself[00:00:18]

Though it weighed not a penny weight more[00:00:20]

It was bought on the morn[00:00:24]

Of the day that he was born[00:00:26]

And was always his treasure and pride[00:00:28]

But it stopped short[00:00:32]

Never to go again[00:00:35]

When the old man died[00:00:36]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:00:41]

His life seconds numbering[00:00:45]

It stopped short[00:00:50]

Never to go again[00:00:52]

When the old man died[00:00:53]

In watching its pendulum[00:00:58]

Swing to and fro[00:01:00]

Many hours had he spent while a boy[00:01:02]

And in childhood and manhood[00:01:06]

The clock seemed to know[00:01:08]

And to share both his grief and his joy[00:01:10]

For it struck twenty-four[00:01:14]

When he entered at the door[00:01:16]

With a blooming and beautiful bride[00:01:18]

But it stopped short[00:01:22]

Never to go again[00:01:25]

When the old man died[00:01:26]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:01:31]

His life seconds numbering[00:01:35]

It stopped short[00:01:39]

Never to go again[00:01:42]

When the old man died[00:01:43]

It rang an alarm[00:01:48]

In the dead of the night[00:01:49]

An alarm that for years had been dumb[00:01:52]

And we knew that his spirit[00:01:55]

Was pluming his flight[00:01:58]

That his hour of departure had come[00:02:00]

Still the clock kept the time[00:02:03]

With a soft and muffled chime[00:02:06]

As we silently stood by his side[00:02:08]

But it stopped short[00:02:11]

Never to go again[00:02:14]

When the old man died[00:02:16]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:02:20]

His life seconds numbering[00:02:25]

It stopped short[00:02:29]

Never to go again[00:02:31]

When the old man died[00:02:33]
