Lyrics
One early morning, as I was walking
I met a woman, started talking
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
But all I know is we just 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, her pop, her father
He said, "I saw you when you kissed my daughter
Got to 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
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
