Bury Me Beneath The Weeping Willow |
| My heart is sad and I’m in sorrow |
| For the only one I love |
| When shall I see him, oh, no, never |
| Till I meet him in heaven above |
| Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| Yes, under the weeping willow tree |
| So he may know where I am sleeping |
| And perhaps he will weep for me |
| They told me that he did not love me |
| I could not believe it was true |
| Until an angel softly whispered |
| He has proven untrue to you |
| Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| Yes, under the weeping willow tree |
| So he may know where I am sleeping |
| And perhaps he will weep for me |
| Tomorrow was our wedding day |
| But, Lord, oh, where is he |
| He’s gone to seek him another bride |
| And he cares no more for me |
| Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| Yes, under the weeping willow tree |
| So he may know where I am sleeping |
| And perhaps he will weep for me |
| Oh, bury me under the violets blue |
| To prove my love to him |
| Tell him that I would die to save him |
| For his love I never could win |
| Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| Yes, under the weeping willow tree |
| So he may know where I am sleeping |
| And perhaps he will weep for me |
