My heart is sad I am lonely
For the only one I love
When shall I see her oh no never
'Til we meet in heaven above
[1] Oh bury me [4] beneath the willow
[1] Under the weeping [5] willow tree
[1] So she will know where [4] I am sleeping
[1] And perhaps she'll [5] weep for [1] me
She told me that she dearly loved me
How could I believe it untrue
Until the angels softly whispered
She will prove untrue to you
Tomorrow was our wedding day
Oh God oh God where can she be
She's out a-courting with another
And no longer cares for me
My heart is sad I am lonely
For the only one I love
When shall I see her oh no never
'Til we meet in heaven above
[1] Oh bury me [4] beneath the willow
[1] Under the weeping [5] willow tree
[1] So she will know where [4] I am sleeping
[1] And perhaps she'll [5] weep for [1] me
She told me that she dearly loved me
How could I believe it untrue
Until the angels softly whispered
She will prove untrue to you
Tomorrow was our wedding day
Oh God oh God where can she be
She's out a-courting with another
And no longer cares for me
