Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow lyrics

[Verse 1]
My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow
For the only one I love
When shall I see him, oh, no, never
'Til we meet in heaven above

[Chorus]
Oh, bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me

[Verse 2]
They 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 you

[Chorus]
Oh, bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me

[Verse 3]
Tomorrow was our wedding day
But, Lord, oh Lord, where is he
He's gone to seek him another bride
And he cares no more for me
[Chorus]
Oh, bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me
And perhaps he'll weep for me
