THE GRANDFATHER CLOCK

Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock

The grandfather clock went Tickity Tock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway
The grandfather clock was a stately old clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

The old grandfather was a kindly old man
And he rocked to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
The grandfather clock was a stately old clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

The old grandfather, he played his fiddle
And he played his fiddle, to that rockin’ rhythm
He rocked to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

A little child danced to that fiddle tune
It danced and pranced by the light of the moon
It rocked to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

The little child sang as it danced in the middle
As it danced and it sang to Grampa’s fiddle
It rocked to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

The light it shined in the heart of the child
As it sang and it danced, it was rockin’ wild
It rocked to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
It went Tickity Tock in the hallway

Rock Rock Tickity Tock, Rock Rock Rock Tickity Tock
Rockin’ to the rhythm of the grandfather clock
As it stood in the middle of the hallway

All good things must come to an end
And it’s the same with our happy song
As the old year ends, a new year begins
And time keeps moving along

Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
We’ll share a cup of kindness yet
For days of auld lang syne

For auld lang syne my dear
For auld lang syne
We’ll share a cup of kindness yet
For days of auld lang syne
