Clementine. |
She knew that Cody was the man she wanted but she had |
waited nearly all her life |
Just one more trip to town to tell the boys goodbye |
Then he’d be back to take her for his wife (don't you worry) Clementine |
Cody saddled up and left his darling then rode to town |
to celebrate his plan |
He told 'em this would be his last carousing |
I’m gonna settle down boys if I can (with my darling) Clementine |
Someone said it must have been past midnight when Cody |
had to face a jealous man |
Another story goes that no one really knows |
But it seems there was a dancehall girl called Nan |
(don't you tell) Clementine |
We do know that the shot or two was heard from some back room |
Then there was a silence in the place |
Just one more trip to town but all his chips were down |
They found Cody lying on his face (softly calling) Clementine |
So buddies make a monument to lay down at his head |
Sure you hate to leave your pal behind |
Mother help your daughter put her wedding dress away |
Cause Cody won’t be riding back this time (to his darling) Clementine |
