Bury Me Beneath The Weeping Willow Lyrics

Ricky Skaggs Bury Me Beneath The Weeping Willow

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...
