Clementine

His name was Tommy
And he lived
In the States
Somewhere
Yes and he met her
Before the Canyon
At the forts
From Idaho

He recognized her
On the eyes
And he called them
Clementine
And these eyes
They became brighter
And these eyes
Only saw him

She was one
From the girls
The Canyon
Not scared
And they have
Down there at the canyon
Your love
Soon discovered

And they went
One evening
As the tired Sun sank
About those
Old Bridge
To the great
Green Bank

But the bridge
Collapsed
And the water
That was so deep
And it heard
Then no one
As Clementine
Called for help

He tried
To save you
But he found her
Nowhere
And the trees
All rushed
At the forts
From Idaho

Clementine
Clementine
Clementine
Clementine
Your love
Only applied to him
And the forests
There at the Canon
They all whisper
Clementine
They all whisper
Clementine
Clementine
Clementine
Clementine
