Clementine Blues Lyrics
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
Thou art 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
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
In my dreams she still doth haunt me
Robed in garments soaked in brine;
Though in life I used to love her
Now she's dead, I draw the line
Excavating for a mine
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter Clementine
Oh my darling, Clementine
Thou art lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes without topses
Sandals were for Clementine
Every morning just at nine
Hit her foot against a splinter
Fell into the foaming brine
Blowing bubbles soft and fine
But alas, I was no swimmer
So I lost my Clementine
Robed in garments soaked in brine;
Though in life I used to love her
Now she's dead, I draw the line
