Clementine

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. Clementine! Clementine! Oh my darling, Clementine! Drove she ducklings to the water Every morn 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. Clementine! Clementine! Oh my darling, Clementine! And the minor forty niner Soon began to peak and pine Thought he oughta join his daughter Now he's left with Clementine In my dreams she still upon me Broken garments soaked in brine Though in life I used to hug her, In death I draw the line Clementine! Clementine! Oh my darling, Clementine! (Oh my darling, oh my darling) How I missed her! How I missed her, How I missed my Clementine, So I kissed her little sister, And I forgot my Clementine. Clementine! Clementine! Oh my darling, Clementine! (Oh my darling, oh my darling) Clementine! Clementine! You are lost and gone, Clementine! Clementine Clementine! Clementine! Oh my darling, Clementine! (Oh my darling, oh my darling) Clementine! Clementine! You are lost and gone, Clementine! Clementine!
