One Mint Julep (Mono Version) (Mono Version)

One early morning as

I was walking

I met a woman, we started talking

I took her home to get a few nips

But all I had was a mint julep

I don’t remember just how

I startedI 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 doing,

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 thinking double

I’m through with flirting and drinking whiskey

I got six extra children from a-getting frisky

A mint julep, a mint julep

A mint julep, a mint julep

One mint julep was the cause of it all
