(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

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
