The Carter Family

Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow Tree

A.P. Carter, Traditional

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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 for me

[Verse 2]
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"

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Tomorrow was our wedding day
But, Oh Lord, where is he?
He's gone to seek him another bride
And he cares no more for me

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
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

[Chorus]
