Clem‧en‧tine /ˈkleməntaɪn/
a
FOLK SONG about a girl who
drowns (=dies from being under water). In the US it is typically sung not in a serious way, but in a humorous way with a southern US accent:
Oh my darling, oh my darling,/Oh my darling, Clementine;/Thou art lost and gone forever,/Dreadful sorry, Clementine. [TahlilGaran] Dictionary of Contemporary English ▲
