Johnny Cash - Clementine lyrics

Your rating:

(Oh my darling Clementine) 

She knew that Cody was the man she wanted but she had waited nearly all her life 

Just one more trip to town to tell the boys goodbye 

Then he'd be back to take her for his wife (don't you worry) Clementine 

Cody saddled up and left his darling then rode to town to celebrate his plan 

He told 'em this would be his last carousing 

I'm gonna settle down boys if I can (with my darling) Clementine 

Someone said it must have been past midnight when Cody had to face a jealous man 

Another story goes that no one really knows 

But it seems there was a dancehall girl called Nan (don't you tell) Clementine 

We do know that the shot or two was heard from some back room 

Then there was a silence in the place 

Just one more trip to town but all his chips were down 

They found Cody lyin' on his face (softly callin') Clementine 

So buddies make a monument to lay down at his head 

Sure you hate to leave your pal behind 

Mother help your daughter put her weddin' dress away 

Cause Cody won't be ridin' back this time (to his darling) Clementine
