Julep

I died happy in my sleep

I died happy in my sleep

Our children around and you looking down from

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

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

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

Now that time stands still

We can drink our fill

Out of silver that will never

Tarnish like we will

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

I died happy in my sleep

I died happy in my sleep

Our children around and you lookin' down from

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

Oh, it's tick, tick, tick, tick

Tick, tick, tick, tick-tockin'

To the time we used to wind it
