My heart is sad and I'm in lonely
For the only girl I love
And now I know i'll never se her
Until we meet in heaven above
Ho bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she'll learn that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me
[Instrumental break]
She told me that she loved me dearly
… i loved her too
But the the willow sing to whispered
She will prove untrue to you
Oh bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she'll learn that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me
[Instrumental break]
Tomorrow was to be our wedding
I wonder where my love can be
She's gone, she's gone courting with another
She no longer cares for me
Ho bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she'll learn that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me
