WOODY GUTHRIE - BURY ME BENEATH THE WILLOW lyrics

rate me

Oh, bury me beneath the willow

Under the weeping willow tree

And when she hears that I am sleeping

maybe then she'll think of me

My heart is sad and I am sorrowed

weeping for the only one I love

When shall I see her oh no never

'Til we meet in heaven above

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 to be our wedding

Lord oh Lord where can she be

She's gone, shes gone to find another

She no longer cares for me
