Clementine |
| In a cavern, down by a canyon |
| Excavation' for a mine |
| A-there lived a miner from North Carolina |
| And his daughter chubby Clementine |
| An' every mornin', hey, just about dawnin' |
| A when the sun began to shine |
| You know she would rouse up, wake all a them cows up |
| And walk 'em down to her daddy’s mine |
| She took the foot bridge way 'cross the water |
| Though she weighed two-ninety-nine |
| The old bridge trembled and disassembled |
| Oops, dumped her into the foamy brine |
| Hey, crackle like thunder, you know she went under |
| Blowin' bubbles down the line |
| Hey, I’m no swimmer but were she slimmer |
| I might’ve saved that Clementine |
| Hey, broke the record way under water |
| I thought that she was doin' fine |
| I wasn’t nervous until the service |
| That they held for Clementine |
| Hey, you sailor way out in your whaler |
| With a harpoon, your trusty line |
| If she shows now, yeah, there she blows now |
| It just may be chunky Clementine |
| One more time |
| Oh my darlin', oh my darlin' |
| Oh my darlin', oh my darlin' |
| Oh my darlin' sweet Clementine |
| You may be gone but you’re not forgotten |
| Fare thee well, so long Clementine, bye |
