[intro: a.p. carter]
as i say, that was in 1927, the second day of august.
i’ll never forget it.

[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
’til i meet him in heaven above

[chorus]
oh, bury me under the weeping willow tree
so he may know where i am sleeping
perhaps will weep over me

[verse 2]
they told me that he did not love me
i could hardly believe it was true
until an angel softly whispered
“he has proven untrue to you”

[chorus]
oh, bury me under the weeping willow tree
so he may know where i am sleeping
perhaps he will weep over me
and perhaps he will weep over me

[verse 3]
tomorrow was our wedding day
but no, lord, where is he?
he’s gone and found him another bride
and he cares no more for me

[chorus]
oh, bury me under the weeping willow tree
so he may know where i am sleeping
and perhaps will weep over me
and perhaps will weep over me

[verse 4]
bury me under the violets blue
to prove my love to him
tell him that i’d die for him
his love i never could win

[chorus]
bury me under the weeping willow tree
so he may know where i am sleeping
and perhaps will weep over me
and perhaps will weep over me
and perhaps will weep over me
and perhaps will weep over me
