Then bury me beneath the willow,

voice; guitarsCollected by Mary C. Parler Inez Gibson Fayetteville, Ark. May 18, 1959 Reel 311, Item 7 Weeping Willow My heart is sad and I am lonely, Weeping for the one I love, He's gone, he's gone to seek another, He no longer cares for me. Tomorrow was to have been our wedding, But, 0 Lord, where is he? He's gone, he's gone to seek another, He no longer cares for me. Chorus Then bury me beneath the willow, Beneath the weeping willow tree, And when he learns where I am sleeping, Then perhaps he'll think of me. When he told me he no longer loved me, I could not believe it true; Until an angel whispered softly, He no longer cares for you. Chorus "Another one I learned from my mother."Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation
