My grandfather's clock was too big 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 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
Yes, the clock kept the time with a soft and lullful chime
As we silently stood by his side
But it stopped short never to go again
When the old man died
But it stopped short never to go again
When the old man died
(Ninety years, ninety years, ninety years...)
(Ninety years, ninety years, ninety years...)
(Ninety years, ninety years, ninety years...)
