Shenandoah

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you Look away, you rollin' river Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri. Now the Missouri is a mighty river Look away, you rollin' river Indians camp a long her border Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri. Well, a white man loved an Indian maiden Look away, you rollin' river With notions his canoe was laden Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri. Shenandoah, I love your daughter Look away, you rollin' river It was for her I'd cross the water Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri. For seven long years I courted Sally Look away, you rollin' river Seven more years I longed to have her Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri. Well, it's fare-thee-well, my dear, I'm bound to leave you Look away, you rollin' river Shenandoah, I will not deceive you Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri.
