The trees are in silhouette once more Their branches like a sable strand Stitched up and through the sky my love To hold it to this land Sing, sparrow, sing Sing me a pretty song Sing, sparrow, sing One more Before I'm gone long gone One more Before I'm gone And when they find you here someday Face-down on that floor An ear to a ghost man's railyard weight For that train to take one more Sing, sparrow, sing Sing me a pretty song Sing, sparrow, sing One more Before I'm gone long gone One more Before I'm gone And if you should change your mind tonight Turn, turn around as you please And we'll meet again in some sweet spring Beneath the old black trees Sing, sparrow, sing Sing me a pretty song Sing, sparrow, sing One more Before I'm gone long gone One more Before I'm gone Clementine, clementine, clementine Oh clementine Clementine, clementine, clementine Oh clementine And get thee behind me, satan
