Bury Me Beneath the Willow

Lyrics

My heart is sad, and I am lonely
 For the only one I love
 When shall I see him, oh, no, never
 'Til we meet in heaven above
 Oh, bury me beneath the willow
 Under the weeping willow tree
 So he will know where I am sleeping
 And perhaps he'll weep for me
 ♪
 He told me that he dearly loved me
 Could I believe it untrue
 Until the angels softly whispered
 He will prove untrue to you
 Oh, bury me beneath the willow
 Under the weeping willow tree
 So he will know where I am sleeping
 And perhaps he'll weep for me
 ♪
 Tomorrow was our wedding day
 Oh God, oh God, where can he be
 He's out courting with another
 And no longer cares 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
