Lyrics
Clementine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In a cavern in a canyon excavatin' for a mine
Dwelt a miner fortyniner and his daughter Clementine
Oh my darling oh my darling oh my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever dreadful sorry Clementine
Soft she was and like a fairy and her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes without topses were the shoes for Clementine
Oh my darling oh my darling
She drove ducklings to the water every morning just at nine
Hit her foot against a splinter fell into the foaming brine
Oh my darling oh my darling
Ruby lips above the water blowing bubbles soft and fine
Alas for Clem he was no swimmer so he lost his Clementine
Oh my darling oh my darling
