Bury Me Beneath The Willow Lyrics

Artist: Woody Guthrie
Album: One Of A Kind

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

My heart is sad I am lonely
For the only one I love
When shall I see her oh no never
'Til we meet in heaven above

She told me that she dearly loved me
How could I believe it untrue
Until the angels softly whispered
She will prove untrue to you

Tomorrow was to be our wedding
God oh God where can she be
She's out a courting with another
And no longer cares for me

I always loved the irony of this song, and never realized it is by Woody Guthrie until I searched it!
