Johnny Cash -My Grandfather's Clock |
| [00:09.30] |
My grandfather's clock; Was too large for the shelf |
| [00:13.92] |
So it stood ninety years on the floor |
| [00:18.33] |
It was taller by half than the old man himself |
| [00:21.88] |
|
| [00:22.75] |
Though it weighed not a penny-weight more; |
| [00:25.50] |
|
| [00:27.00] |
It was bought on the morn; Of the day that he was born |
| [00:31.12] |
|
| [00:31.68] |
And was always his treasure and pride |
| [00:34.17] |
|
| [00:36.04] |
But it stopped short never to go again |
| [00:39.79] |
|
| [00:40.54] |
When the old man died. |
| [00:43.47] |
|
| [00:44.97] |
Ninety years without slumbering |
| [00:47.09] |
|
| [00:48.21] |
dah dah dah, dah dah |
| [00:51.08] |
His life seconds numbering |
| [00:52.14] |
dah dah dah, dah dah |
| [00:54.57] |
It stopped short never to go again |
| [00:57.51] |
|
| [00:58.57] |
When the old man died. |
| [01:01.75] |
|
| [01:03.25] |
my grandfather said that of those he could hire |
| [01:07.05] |
|
| [01:07.74] |
Not a servant so faitful he found |
| [01:10.37] |
|
| [01:11.99] |
For it wasted no time and had but one desire |
| [01:15.98] |
|
| [01:16.73] |
At the close of each week to be wound |
| [01:19.54] |
|
| [01:21.04] |
And it kept in its' place; not a frown upon its' face |
| [01:24.78] |
|
| [01:25.65] |
And its' hands never hung by its side |
| [01:28.46] |
|
| [01:29.96] |
But it stopped short never to go again |
| [01:33.76] |
|
| [01:34.51] |
When the old man died. |
| [01:37.63] |
|
| [01:41.44] |
It rang an alarm in the dead of the night |
| [01:45.18] |
|
| [01:45.87] |
An alarm that for years had been dumb |
| [01:48.55] |
|
| [01:50.05] |
And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight |
| [01:54.05] |
|
| [01:54.80] |
That his hour for departure had come. |
| [01:57.29] |
|
| [01:59.04] |
Still the clock kept the time; with its' soft and muffled chimes |
| [02:03.78] |
As we proudly stood by his side |
| [02:06.40] |
|
| [02:08.02] |
But it stopped short never to go again |
| [02:12.45] |
When the old man died. |
| [02:15.45] |
|
| [02:17.07] |
Ninety years without slumbering |
| [02:18.75] |
|
| [02:19.88] |
dah dah dah, dah dah |
| [02:22.37] |
His life seconds numbering |
| [02:23.93] |
dah dah dah, dah dah |
| [02:25.99] |
It stopped short never to go again |
| [02:30.11] |
When the old man died. |
| [02:33.17] |
|
| [02:35.10] |
Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...... |
