Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow

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 above

Oh 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 over me

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

Oh 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 over me

Tomorrow was our wedding day

But oh Lord oh where is he

He's gone to seek him another bride

And he cares no more for me

Oh 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 over me

Oh 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 win

Oh 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 over me
