Oh I am in sadness and in sorrow
for the only one that I love
When shall I see her oh no never
till I meet her in heaven above
Oh bury me beneath the willow
yes under the weeping willow tree
So she may know where I am sleeping
and perhaps she will weep over me
Tomorrow was our wedding day
but oh Lord oh whether she can see
She is gone away to seek another
and she cares no more for me
