Oh Shenandoah, |
|
I long to hear you, |
|
Away you rolling river, |
|
Oh Shenandoah, |
|
I long to hear you, |
|
Away, I'm bound away |
|
'Cross the wide Missouri. |
|
Oh Shenandoah, |
|
I love your daughter, |
|
Away you rolling river, |
|
I'll take her 'cross |
|
Your rollin' water, |
|
Away, I'm bound away |
|
'Cross the wide Missouri. |
|
'Tis seven years, |
|
I've been a rover, |
|
Away you rolling river, |
|
When I return, |
|
I'll be your lover, |
|
Away, I'm bound away |
|
'Cross the wide Missouri. |
|
Oh Shenandoah, |
|
I'm bound to leave you. |
|
Away you rolling river, |
|
Oh Shenandoah, |
|
I'll not deceive you. |
|
Away, I'm bound away |
|
'Cross the wide Missouri. |
