Bury me beneath the willow 'Neath the weeping willow tree When he hears that I am sleeping Maybe then he'll think on me My heart is sad and I am lonely Thinking on the one I love When I'll see him oh no never Unless we meet in heaven above Bury me beneath the willow 'Neath the weeping willow tree When he hears that I am sleeping Maybe then he'll think on me She told me that she dearly loved me How could I believe it untrue Until one day some neighbours told me She has proved untrue to you So won't you Bury me beneath the willow 'Neath the weeping willow tree When he hears that I am sleeping Maybe then he'll think on me Tomorrow was to be our wedding Oh pray oh Lord where can it be He's gone, he's gone to love another He no longer cares for me. Well you can Bury me beneath the willow 'Neath the weeping willow tree When he hears that I am sleeping Maybe then he'll think on me
