beneath the willows (gemsonvhs field recording) - anthony simpkins lyrics
[verse 1]
my heart is sad and i am lonely
for the only one i love
when shall i see her, oh no never
till we meet in heaven above
[chorus]
oh, bury me beneath the willows
underneath that weeping willow tree
so she’ll know where i am sleeping, boys
perhaps she’ll wait there for me, alright
[verse 2]
well, she told me she loved me dearly
how could i believe it so untrue
until the angel softly whispered
that she will come and prove untrue to you
[chorus]
oh, bury me beneath the willows
underneath that weeping willow tree
so she’ll know where i am sleeping, boys
perhaps she’ll wait there for me
[verse 3]
well, tomorrow was our wedding day
oh god, where could she be
she’s out a courting with another
and no longer cares for me
[chorus]
oh, bury me beneath the willows
underneath that weeping willow tree
so she’ll know where i am sleeping, boys
perhaps she’ll wait there for me, ah no
