Lyrics

There’s a grand fa ther clock in my hall way,

a tick ing ev ’ry night and ev ’ry day.

And it al ways re minds me in a small way that there’s a time for work and time for play.

With a tick

and a tock

sings my tall and state ly grand fa ther clock.

Nev er miss

ing a beat,

al ways keep ing stead y rhy thm as I sleep!

Tick tock,

tick tock,

tick tock,

tock, tock!

There’s a grand fa ther clock in my hall way, a tick ing ev ’ry night and ev ’ry day.

And it al ways re minds me in a small way that there’s a time for work and time for play!

Tick tock

goes my grand

fa ther clock!
