Clementine lyrics

Artist  : Bobby Darin 
Song : Clementine



 Send "Clementine" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

In a cavern down by a canyon
Excavatin' for a
mine,
There lived a miner from North
Carolina
And his daughter, chubby
Clementine.

Now every mornin', just about
dawnin'
A'when the sun begins to shine
You
know she would rouse up, wake all a dem cows
up
And walk 'em down to her Daddy's
mine.

A'took the foot bridge, way 'cross
the water
Though she weighed two-ninety
nine.
The old bridge trembled and
disassembled
(Oops!) dumped her into the foamy
brine.

Hey, crackle like thunder, (ho, ho)
she went under
(ho, ho) blowin bubbles (bubble
sound) down the line.
Hey, I'm no swimm'a but
were she slimm'a
I might'a saved that
Clementine.

(Ho) broke the record, way
under water
I thought that she was doin'
fine.
I wasn't nervous ya until the
service
That they held for
Clementine.

Hey you sailor (ho, ho) way
out in your whaler
With a harpoon, your trusty
line.
If she shows now, yo, there she blows
now,
It just may be chunky
Clementine.

(One more time)
Oh my
darlin', oh my darlin', oh my darlin'
Oh my
darlin' , oh my darlin' sweet Clementine,
You
may be gone
But!
You're not
forgotten,
Fare thee well
So long,
Clementine
(Bubble sound) Bye!
