Songtexte Clementine - George Hamilton IV

In a cavern, in a canyon
Excavating for a mine
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter, Clementine

Oh my darlin', oh my darlin'
Oh my darlin', Clementine
You are 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

Oh my darlin', oh my darlin'
Oh my darlin', 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

Oh my darlin', oh my darlin'
Oh my darlin', Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Oh my darlin', Clementine

Ruby lips above the water
Blowing bubbles, soft and fine
Alas for me, I was no swimmer
So I lost my Clementine

Oh my darlin', oh my darlin'
Oh my darlin', Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Oh my darlin', Clementine

Oh my darlin', Clementine
