Skaggs & Rice
My heart is sad and I am lonely for the only one I love
When shall I see her, oh no never, 'til we meet in Heaven above
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me
She told me that she dearly loved me, how could I believe it untrue?
Until the angel softly whispered, She
will
prove
untrue
to
you
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me
Tomorrow was our wedding day, oh God, oh God where can she be?
She's out a-courting with another and no longer cares for me
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me
