One Mint Julep (Drinking) |
| One early mornin', as I was walkin' |
| I met a woman, we started talkin' |
| I took her home to get a few nips |
| But all I had was a mint julep |
| One mint julep was the cause of it all |
| I don’t remember just how it started |
| I only know that we should have parted |
| I stole a kiss and then another |
| I didn’t mean to take it further |
| One mint julep was the cause of it all |
| The lights were burning low, there in the parlor |
| When through the kitchen door, up popped her father |
| He said, «I saw you when you kissed my daughter |
| Better wed her right now or face a slaughter» |
| I didn’t know just what I was doin' |
| I had to marry or face ruin |
| A mint julep, a mint julep |
| A mint julep, a mint julep |
| One mint julep was the cause of it all |
| Now, I don’t want to bore you with my troubles |
| But from now on I’ll be thinkin' double |
| I’m through with flirtin' and drinkin' whiskey |
| I got six extra children from a-gettin' frisky |
| A mint julep, a mint julep |
| A mint julep, a mint julep |
| One mint julep was the cause of it all |
