Clementine 
Lyrics: Robert Hunter
Music: Phil Lesh

Chopped olive sandwiches, roses and wine
Red ripe persimmons, my sweet Clementine
I go on, I go on, I can't fill my cup
There's a hole in the bottom, the well has dried up

I run through the forest, I cut past the vine
Head through the thickets, many a time
[Field full] of voices, sweet voices behind
I left for the comfort of cold Clementine
