One Mint Julep

(专辑： Love Is Blue - 1969)

Hmm (Hmm)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

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 she had was a mint julep
One mint julep was the cause of it all

I don't remember just how I started
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
I only know that we should have parted
(Woo, Hey! One Mint Julep)
I stole a kiss, and then another
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
I didn't mean to take it further
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
One mint julep was the cause of it all

It's a bad bad scene
Why you treat me so mean?

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!"

Hmm (Hmm)
Oh no, no, no

(Woo, hey!, One mint julep) One mint julep
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep) Just one drink, just had one drink
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep) Never again
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep) I can't walk you home no more
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep) One mint julep
One mint julep was the cause of it all

It's a bad bad scene
So risky, treated me so mean

One mint julep was the cause of it all

Hmmm (Hmmm)
Let me tell you

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

Boy!
Oh boy, oh boy!

One mint julep
One mint julep
One mint julep
One mint julep
One mint julep was the cause of it all

Hmmm (Hmm)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
(Woo, hey!, One mint julep)
