Oh My Darlin' Lyrics

Oh My Darlin' - The Weavers

Lyrics by:Traditional

Composed by:Traditional

In a cavern in a canyon

Excavating for a mine

Dwelt a miner forty-niner

And his daughter Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

Light she was and like a fairy

And her shoes were number nine

Herring boxes without topses

Sandals were for Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

Drove she ducklings to the water

Ev'ry morning just at nine

Stubbed her toe upon a splinter

Fell into the foaming brine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

Ruby lips above the water

Blowing bubbles clear and fine

But alas I was no swimmer

Oh why ask my Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

There's a churchyard on the hillside

Where the flowers grow and twine

There grow roses 'muid the posies

Norised by my Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

How I missed her

How I missed her

How I missed my Clementine

So I kissed her little sister

I forgot my Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry Clementine

Oh my darling oh my darling

Oh my darling Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

 

Dreadful sorry Clementine
