Natalie Merchant's, "Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow"
Misheard Lyrics:
He's on the corner, doin' another
And no longer cares for me
So bury me under the weeping willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll wait for me.
And no longer cares for me
So bury me under the weeping willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll wait for me.
Original Lyrics:
He's out a-courtin' with another
And no longer cares for me
So bury me underneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me.
And no longer cares for me
So bury me underneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me.
Natalie Merchant's, "Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow"
Misheard Lyrics:
So bury me under the weeping willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he will know
That I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll wait for me.
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he will know
That I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll wait for me.
Original Lyrics:
So bury me underneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know
Where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me.
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know
Where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me.
