Bury Me Beneath the Willow Songtext
von Oliver the Crow

My heart is sad and I am lonesome
For the only one I love
When shall I see her, oh no never
′Til we meet in heaven above


So bury me beneath the willow
Underneath the willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping
And perhaps she'll weep for me

She told me that she truly 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
God, oh God, where can she be?
She′s gone a-courting with another
And no longer cares for me
