Elliott SmithAbout
“Clementine” tells a deceptively simple story – a man gets drunk and worries about his relationship – using beautiful imagery.
It’s also based on the imagery from the folk poem “Oh My Darling, Clementine”.
Clementine Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They're waking you up to close the bar
The street's wet, you can tell by the sound of the cars
The bartender's singing "Clementine"
While he's turning around the open sign
[Chorus]
"Dreadful sorry, Clementine"
[Bridge]
Though you're still her man
It seems a long time gone
Maybe the whole thing's wrong
What if she thinks so but just didn't say so?
[Verse 2]
You drank yourself into slow-mo
Made an angel in the snow
Anything to pass the time
And keep that song out of your mind
[Chorus]
"(Oh) Oh my darling
(Oh) Oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clementine
Dreadful sorry, Clementine"
