[00:02.73]My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow
[00:07.05]For the only one I love
[00:11.39]When shall I see him, oh, no, never
[00:15.99]Till I meet him in heaven above
[00:20.02]
[00:20.33]Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
[00:24.87]Yes under the weeping willow tree
[00:29.10]So he may know where I am sleeping
[00:33.56]And perhaps he will weep over me
[00:38.32]
[00:38.69]They told me that he did not love me
[00:42.96]I could not believe it was true
[00:47.10]Until an angel softly whispered
[00:51.38]He has proven untrue to you
[00:55.61]
[00:55.93]Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
[01:00.33]Yes under the weeping willow tree
[01:04.47]So he may know where I am sleeping
[01:08.70]And perhaps he will weep over me
[01:12.97]
[01:29.29]Tomorrow was our wedding day
[01:33.64]But, oh Lord, oh, where is he
[01:37.60]He's gone to seek him another bride
[01:41.96]And he cares no more for me
[01:45.73]
[01:46.11]Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
[01:50.46]Yes under the weeping willow tree
[01:54.23]So he may know where I am sleeping
[01:58.58]And perhaps he will weep over me
[02:03.04]
[02:18.82]Oh, bury me under the violets blue
[02:23.17]To prove my love to him
[02:27.08]Tell him that I would die to save him
[02:31.12]For his love I never could win
[02:35.16]
[02:35.47]Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
[02:39.56]Yes under the weeping willow tree
[02:43.66]So he may know where I am sleeping
[02:47.75]And perhaps he will weep over me
