Another song we sang as kids, this one from my mom.Lyrics:My grandfather's clockWas too large for the shelf,So it stood ninety years on the floor;It was taller by halfThan the old man himself,Though it weighed not a pennyweight more.It was bought on the mornOf the day that he was born,And was always his treasure and pride;But it stopped shortNever to go again,When the old man died.CHORUS:Ninety years without slumbering,Tick, tock, tick, tock,His life seconds numbering,Tick, tock, tick, tock,It stopped shortNever to go again,When the old man died.extra versus I didn't know before this video!verse 2In watching its pendulumSwing to and fro,Many hours had he spent while a boy;And in childhood and manhoodThe clock seemed to know,And to share both his grief and his joy.For it struck twenty-fourWhen he entered at the door,With a blooming and beautiful bride;But it stopped shortNever to go again,When the old man died.CHORUSverse 3My grandfather saidThat of those he could hire,Not a servant so faithful he found;For it wasted no time,And had but one desire,At the close of each week to be wound.And it kept in its place,Not a frown upon its face,And its hand never hung by its side.But it stopped shortNever to go again,When the old man died.CHORUSverse 4It rang an alarmIn the dead of the night,An alarm that for years had been dumb;And we knew that his spiritWas pluming for flight,That his hour of departure had come.Still the clock kept the time,With a soft and muffled chime,As we silently stood by his side.But it stopped shortNever to go again,When the old man died.CHORUS
