歌詞:
1)
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 stopp'd 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 stop'd short, never to go again,
When the old man died.

In watching its pendulum swing to and fro,
Many hours had he spent while a boy;
And in childhood and manhood the clock seem'd to know,
And to share both his grief and his joy,
For it struck twenty four when he enter'd at the door,
With a blooming and beautiful bride,

3)
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 of departure had come,
Still the clock kept the time with a soft and muffled chime,
As we silently stood by his side,
