It rained the night away, the day I left the mine

A banjo on my knee, Susannah don't you cry

Our wagon lost a wheel, along the rocky wind

I'll make it up to you, my darlin' Clementine

HANG ON (HANG ON), CLEMENTINE

HANG ON, CLEMENTINE

HANG ON (HANG ON), CLEMENTINE

HANG ON, CLEMENTINE

I sold the farm for gold-That's how the story tells

Against your very will, I bought a wishing well-Yes I did!

The days indeed were hard, and fortune was not mine

I will return to you, my darlin' Clementine

(CHORUS 2x)

(CHORUS to fade)
