One Mint Julep

One early morning, as I was walking
I met a man
Went in a tavern, to get a few nips
But all I had was one mint julep
It was the cause of it all

I don't remember just how it started
But all I know is
We stole a kiss, and then another
I didn't mean to
One mint julep
It was the cause of it all

The lights were burning low, there in the tavern
When through the swinging door, in walks my father
He said, "I saw you when you kissed my daughter"
Oh, shit!

I didn't know just what we were doing
We up and marriеd
A mint julep, a mint julep
A mint julep
Onе mint julep
It was the cause of it all

Hey! (A just a little splash of soda)

Well
Don't want to bore you with my troubles
But from now on I'll be thinking double
I'm through with flirting and getting frisky
Got six extra kids from drinking whiskey

I don't remember just how it started
But all I know is
We stole a kiss, and then another
I didn't mean to
One mint julep
One mint julep
One mint julep
It was the cause of it all, yeah
