Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I died happy in my sleep
I died happy in my sleep
Our children around and you looking down from
[Verse 2]
Heaven's a julep on the porch
Heaven's a julep on the porch
You and me rockin'
A grandfather clock is tick, tick-tockin'
To the time we used to wind it
[Verse 3]
She brought the sugar and the mint
She brought the sugar and the mint
And he brought the whiskey, asked for my blessing
Yes, sir, I know she's
[Verse 4]
Heaven's a julep on the porch
Heaven's a julep on the porch
You and me rockin'
A grandfather clock is tick, tick-tockin'
To the time we used to wind it
Got the time, we used to wind it
[Verse 5]
Now that time stands still
We can drink our fill
Out of silver that will never
Tarnish like we will
[Verse 6]
You were just a girl that I should meet
You were the girl that I would meet for drinks in the backyard
A beautiful daughter, lifetime's a summer
And love there will after
[Verse 7]
I died happy in my sleep
I died happy in my sleep
Our children around and you lookin' down from
[Verse 8]
Heaven's a julep on the porch
Heaven's a julep on the porch
You and me rockin'
A grandfather clock is tick, tick, tick, tick-tockin'
To the time we used to wind it
Got the time, we used to wind it
[Verse 9]
Oh, it's tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick-tockin'
To the time we used to wind it
