Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling, Clementine

You are lost & gone forever;
Dreadful sorry, Clementine . . .

In a cavern . . .
In a canyon . . .
Excavating for a mine

Lived a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter, Clementine . . .

Light she was . . .
And like a fairy . . .
And her shoes were no. 9

Herring boxes without topses;
Sandals weren't for Clementine . . .

Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling, Clementine

You are lost & gone forever;
Dreadful sorry, Clementine . . .

Drove she ducklings . . .
To the water . . .
Every morning right at nine

Hit her foot against a splinter;
Fell into the foaming brine . . .

Ruby lips . . .
Above the water . . .
Blowing bubbles soft & fine

But alas, I was no swimmer;
So I lost my Clementine . . .

Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling, Clementine

You are lost & gone forever;
Dreadful sorry, Clementine . . .

How I missed her . . .
How I missed her . . .
How I missed my Clementine

'Til I kissed her little sister;
And for forgot that Clementine . . .

Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling . . .
Oh, my darling, Clementine

You are lost & gone forever;
Dreadful sorry, Clementine . . .

Soon the miner . . .
Forty-niner . . .
Began to pique & pine

Thought he oughter join his daughter;
Now he's with his Clementine . . .
