A.P. Carter - Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow lyrics

My heart is sad and I am in sorrow For the only one I love When shall I see him, oh no, never Till we meet in heaven above Oh, bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he may know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll 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 beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he may know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me Tomorrow was our wedding day But Lord, oh Lord, where is he? He's gone to seek him another bride And he cares no more for me Oh, bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he may know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me And perhaps he'll weep for me
