My heart is sad and I am lonely thinking of the one I love
I know that I shall ne'r more see her till we meet in heavens above
Well bury me beneath the willow beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she knows where I am sleeping then perhaps she'll weep for me
[ steel ]
Tomorrow was our wedding day oh Lord oh Lord where can she be
She's gone away to wed another and she no longer cares for me
Then bury me beneath the willow...
Then bury me beneath the willow...
