Oh My Darling Clementine

Music: Percy Montrose Oh My Darling Clementine - Martin Hederos/Magnus Carlson In a cavern, in a canyon Excavating for a mine Dwelt a miner, forty-niner And his daughter-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 Every morning just at nine Hit her foot against a splinter Fell into the foaming brine Ruby lips above the water Blowing bubbles soft and fine But alas, I was no swimmer So I lost my Clementine Oh my Darling, Oh my Darling Oh my Darling Clementine You are lost and gone forever Dreadful sorry, Clementine In the churchyard, in the canyon Where the myrtle doth entwine There grow roses and other posies Fertilized by Clementine In my dreams she still doth haunt me Robed in garments soaked in brine Then she rises from the water And I kiss 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 Whole a life you were my darling Now you gone dear Clementine
