| [00:02.730] |
My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow |
| [00:07.050] |
For the only one I love |
| [00:11.390] |
When shall I see him, oh, no, never |
| [00:15.990] |
Till I meet him in heaven above |
| [00:20.330] |
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| [00:24.870] |
Yes under the weeping willow tree |
| [00:29.100] |
So he may know where I am sleeping |
| [00:33.560] |
And perhaps he will weep over me |
| [00:38.690] |
They told me that he did not love me |
| [00:42.960] |
I could not believe it was true |
| [00:47.100] |
Until an angel softly whispered |
| [00:51.380] |
He has proven untrue to you |
| [00:55.930] |
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| [01:00.330] |
Yes under the weeping willow tree |
| [01:04.470] |
So he may know where I am sleeping |
| [01:08.700] |
And perhaps he will weep over me |
| [01:29.290] |
Tomorrow was our wedding day |
| [01:33.640] |
But, oh Lord, oh, where is he |
| [01:37.600] |
He's gone to seek him another bride |
| [01:41.960] |
And he cares no more for me |
| [01:46.110] |
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| [01:50.460] |
Yes under the weeping willow tree |
| [01:54.230] |
So he may know where I am sleeping |
| [01:58.580] |
And perhaps he will weep over me |
| [02:18.820] |
Oh, bury me under the violets blue |
| [02:23.170] |
To prove my love to him |
| [02:27.080] |
Tell him that I would die to save him |
| [02:31.120] |
For his love I never could win |
| [02:35.470] |
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow |
| [02:39.560] |
Yes under the weeping willow tree |
| [02:43.660] |
So he may know where I am sleeping |
| [02:47.750] |
And perhaps he will weep over me |
