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 rocking the grandfather

Clock is tick tick talking

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 rocking the grandfather

Clock is tick tick talking

To the time we used to wind it

God the time we used to wind it

Now the time stands still

We can drink our fill

Out of silver

That will never

Tarnish like we will

You weren't just a girl that I should meet

You were the girl that I would meet

For drinks in the backyard

A beautiful daughter

A Lifetime of summer

And love ever after

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 rocking the grandfather

Clock is tick tick tick tick

Talking to the time we used to wind it

God the time

We used to wind it

Clock is tick tick tick tick

Tick tick tick tick

Talking to the time

We used to wind it
