Intro verse 1 The trees are in silhouette once more Their branches like a sable stand Stretched up into 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 verse 2 And when they find you here someday Face down on that floor An ear to a ghost man’s rail-yard 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 Instrumental verse 3 And if you should change your mind tonight Turn, turn around as you please 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 Outro Clementine, Clementine, Clementine, oh Clementine Clementine, Clementine, Clementine, oh Clementine And get thee behind me, Satan
