歌词
One early morning as I was walking
我只是漫步在一个清晨
I met a woman, we started talking
我遇到一个女人，然后聊起天来
I took her home to get a few nips
不知不觉我就带了她回家，喝了一点小酒
But all I had was a mint julep
但我们就只喝了一杯薄荷朱利
One mint julep was the cause of it all
一杯薄荷朱利是整件事的源头
怎么开始的，我早已忘却
I don't remember just how I started
我只知道我们应该分开的
But all I know is we should have parted
可我偷了一个吻，又忍不住偷了一个
I stole a kiss and then another
我打算不再进行下去，可……
I didn't mean to take it further
一杯薄荷朱利是整件事的源头
One mint julep was the cause of it all
客厅里的灯飘飘忽忽，愈加暗淡
穿过厨房为她的父亲开门
The lights were burning low, there in the parlor
他说，我看到你吻我的女儿
Went through the kitchen door up popped her father
要么立刻娶她，要么就等着死吧
He said, I saw you when you kissed my daughter
我根本不知道我做了什么
Got to wed her right now, or face a slaughter
我只能娶她，不然摆在面前的就是死亡
一杯薄荷朱利，只一杯薄荷朱利啊
I didn't know just what I was doing
一杯薄荷朱利，只一杯薄荷朱利啊
I had to marry or face ruin
一杯薄荷朱利是整件事的源头
A mint julep, a mint julep
现在，我不渴求你原谅我的过错
A mint julep, a mint julep
但从现在开始我将会三思而后行
One mint julep was the cause of it all
我再也不打情骂俏，再也不喝威士忌
因为艳遇我有了六个额外的孩子
Now, I don't want to bore you with my troubles
一杯薄荷朱利，只一杯薄荷朱利啊
But from now on I'll be thinking double
一杯薄荷朱利，只一杯薄荷朱利啊
I'm through with flirting and drinking whiskey
一杯薄荷朱利，多么可怕啊
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
