W:1
W:In a cavern, In a canyon, Excavating for a mine,
W:Dwelt a miner forty-niner, And his daughter Clementine.
W:
W:ch
W:Oh my darling, Oh my darling, Oh my darling Clementine,
W:You are lost and gone forever, Dreadful sorry Clementine.
W:
W:2
W:Light she was and like a fairy, And her shoes were number nine;
W:Herring boxes, without topses, Sandals were for Clementine.
W:
W:3
W:Drove she ducklings to the water, Every morning just at nine;
W:Hit her foot against a splinter, Fell into the foaming brine.
W:
W:4
W:Ruby lips above the water, Blowing bubbles, mighty fine;
W:Alas for me! I was no swimmer, So I lost my Clementine.
W:
W:5
W:Then the miner forty-niner, Soon began to peak and pine,
W:Thought he oughter join his daughter, Now he's with his Clementine.
W:
W:6
W:In a corner of the churchyard, Where the myrtle boughs entwine,
W:Grow the roses in their poses, Fertilized by Clementine.
W:
W:7
W:In my dreams she still doth haunt me, Robed in garments soaked in brine.
W:Though in life I used to hug her, Now she's dead, I'll draw the line.
W:
W:8
W:I missed her, how I missed her, How I missed my Clementine.
W:So I kissed her little sister, And forgot my Clementine.
