There's a great Jake Thackray song The Jolly Captain, I think. His wife is a mean, bitter scold who curses him before she dies and swears she'll come back to haunt him if he re-marries.
Of course he remarries after a fortnight and his friends say he's made a mistake. He replies,
"No she won't come to haunt me or taunt me, I know. For I buried her face downward, she's a long way to go."
