    My grandfather's clock
    Was too large for the shelf
    So it stood ninety years on the floor
    It was taller by half than the old man himself
    Though it weighed not a pennyweight more
    It was bought on the morn Of the day that he was born
    And was always his treasure and pride
    But it stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    Ninety years without slumbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    His life seconds numbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    It stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    It watching its pendulum Swing to and fro
    Many hours had he spent while a boy
    And in childhood and manhood
    The clock seemed to know
    And to share both his grief and his joy
    For it struck twenty-four
    When he entered at the door
    With a blooming and beautiful bride
    But it stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    Ninety years without slumbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    His life seconds numbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    It stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    My grandfather said
    That 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 short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    Ninety years without slumbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    His life seconds numbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    It stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    It rang an alarm in the dead of the night
    An alarm that for years had been dumb
    And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight
    That his hour for departure had come
    Still the clock kept the time with its'soft and muffled chimes
    As we silently stood by his side
    But it stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
    Ninety years without slumbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    His life seconds numbering
    Tick tock tick tock
    It stopped short
    Never to go again
    When the old man died
