Westlife - Clementine lyrics

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 disa**embled 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
