Bury me beneath the willow
'Neath the weeping willow tree
When she hears that I am sleeping
Maybe then she'll think of me
My heart is sad and I am lonely
Dreaming of the one that I love
When will I see her? I know not when
Not unless it's up in heaven above
Bury me beneath the willow
'Neath the weeping willow tree
When she hears that I am sleeping
Maybe then she'll think of me
She told me that she really loved me
How could I believe her untrue
When all the angels seemed to whisper
She will prove untrue to you?
Bury me beneath the willow
'Neath the weeping willow tree
When she hears that I am sleeping
Maybe then she'll think of me
Maybe then she'll think of me
