Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow Lyrics

My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow
For the only one I love
When shall I see him, oh, no, never
Till I meet him in heaven aboveOh, bury me under the weeping willow
Yes, under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for meThey told me that he did not love me
I could not believe it was true
Until an angel softly whispered
He has proven untrue to youOh, bury me under the weeping willow
Yes, under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for meTomorrow was our wedding day
But, Lord, oh, where is he
He's gone to seek him another bride
And he cares no more for meOh, bury me under the weeping willow
Yes, under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping

And perhaps he will weep for meOh, bury me under the violets blue
To prove my love to him
Tell him that I would die to save him
For his love I never could winOh, bury me under the weeping willow
Yes, under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
