Oh my darling, Clementine ~

 

 

 Oh my darling, clementine

 

In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine
Dwelt a miner forty niner,
And his daughter Clementine

• Chorus:

Oh my darling, oh my darling,
Oh my darling, Clementine!
Thou art lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine

 

Light she was and like a fairy,
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes, without topses,
Sandals were for Clementine. --Chor.

 

Drove she ducklings to the water

Ev'ry morning just at nine,
Hit her foot against a splinter,
Fell into the foaming brine. – Chor.

 

Ruby lips above the water,
Blowing bubbles, soft and fine,
But, alas, I was no swimmer,
So I lost my Clementine. – Chor.

 

How I missed her! How I missed her,
How I missed my Clementine,
But I kissed her little sister,
I forgot my Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

 

How I missed her! How I missed her,
How I missed my Clementine,
Till I kissed her little sister,
and forgot my Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

How I missed her, how I missed her
How I missed my Clementine.
So I kissed her little sister,
And forgot my Clementine.

---OR---

In a churchyard on a hillside
Where the flowers grow and twine
There grow roses amongst the posies
Flowers for my Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

In a churchyard by the hillside
There grow roses well entwined
And some posies 'mongst the roses
Sprung to life by Clementine.

---OR---

Then the miner forty-niner
He began to weep and pine
For his darling little daughter
Now he's with his Clementine – Chor.

---OR---

In a churchyard on a hillside
Where the flowers grow and twine
There grow roses amongst the posies
On the grave of Clementine – Chor.

---OR---

In a corner of the churchyard,
Where the myrtle boughs entwine,
Grow the roses in their poses,
Fertilized by Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

In A Tavern in the canyon,
Drinking beer and lots of wine,
Sat a miner forty niner,
Grieving over Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

Then the miner forty niner,
He began to peak and pine,
Thought he oughta join his daughter
Now he's with his Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

In my dreams she still doth haunt me,
Robed in garments soaked in brine.
Though in life I used to hug her,
Now she's dead, I'll draw the line.^[1] – Chor.

---OR---

Now you Boy Scouts, there's a moral
To this little tale of mine.
Artificial respiration,
Would have saved my Clementine. – Chor.

---OR---

When she slipped and hit the water
'felt my heart skip a time
All had scattered nothin' mattered
'cept my darlin' clementine. – Chor.

Additional verses[edit]

I took her, on a picnic,
Oh, how the Sun did shine.
But she’s 'llergic to bee stings
To the doctor, Clementine – Chor.

Clementine's gorgeous hair
Was so beautiful and fine
So I took a pair of scissors,
An' cut it all off to be mine. – Chor.

 

넓고 넓은 바닷가에 오막살이 집 한채.

고기 잡는 아버지와 철 모르는 딸 있네.

내 사랑아 내사랑아 나의 사랑 클레멘타인.

늙은 아비 혼자 두고 영영 어딜 갔느냐.

 

바람부는 하루날에 아버지를 찾으러

바닷가에 나가더니 해가져도 안오네.

내사랑아 내사랑아 나의 사랑 클레멘타인.

늙은 아비 혼자 두고 영영 어딜 갔느냐.

 

넓고 넓은 바닷가에 꿈을 잃은 조각배.

철썩이던 파도마저 소리없이 잠드네.

내사랑아 내사랑아 나의사랑 클레멘타인.

늙은 아비 혼자 두고 영영 어딜 갔느냐.

 

미국 서부 개척시대 광부가 어린 딸을 잃고

딸을 그리워 한다는 내용의 노래

열심히 살다가 소중한 일부를 잃어버린 상태의 

안타까움을 노래로 표현... 

결국 LA, Seatle, 라스베이거스와 같은

위대한 서부를 탄생시킨다.
