Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow

Well, my heart is sad and I am lonesome
 For the only one I love
 When shall we meet?
 Oh no, never, till we meet in heaven above
 So bury me underneath the willow
 Under the weeping willow tree
 So that he may know where I am sleeping
 And perhaps he? ll weep for me
 Well, he told me that he dearly loved me
 Oh, how could it be untrue?
 Until the angels softly whispered
 ? He will prove untrue to you?
 So bury me underneath the willow
 Under the weeping willow tree
 So that he may know where I am sleeping
 And perhaps he? ll weep for me
 Well, tomorrow was to be our wedding day
 But oh my God, where can he be?
 He? s out a courting with another
 And no longer cares for me
 So bury me underneath the willow
 Under the weeping willow tree
 So that he may know where I am sleeping
 And perhaps he? ll weep for me
