One early mornin' as I was walkin' I met a woman who started talkin' I took her home to get a few nips But all I had was a man to do For the one man julep was the cause of it all I don't remember just how it started But all I know is we should have parted I stole a kiss and then another I didn't mean to take it further For the one man julep was the cause of it all The lights were burnin' low There in the bar I went through the kitchen door I popped her father, he said, I saw you with You kissed my daughter, I got to wed her right now I met a woman who started talkin' I took her home to get a few nips But all I had was a man to do For the one man julep was the cause of it all For the one man julep was the cause of it all I don't want to bore you with my troubles But from now on I'll be thinkin' double I'm through with flirtin' and drinkin' whiskey I got six extra children from a gettin' frisky For the one man julep was the cause of it all
