Shenandoah
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter,
Way hey you rolling river
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
The chief disdained the trader's dollar
Way hey you rolling river
My daughter you shall never follow
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
For seven years I courted Sally
Way hey you rolling river
For seven more, I longed to have her
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
She said she would not be my lover
Way hey you rolling river
Because I was a tarry sailor
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
At last there came a Yankee skipper
Way hey you rolling river
He winked his eye and tipped his flipper
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
He sold the chief that firewater
Way hey you rolling river
And cross the river he stole his daughter
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter,
Way hey you rolling river
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
Way hey you rolling river
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
The chief disdained the trader's dollar
Way hey you rolling river
My daughter you shall never follow
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
For seven years I courted Sally
Way hey you rolling river
For seven more, I longed to have her
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
She said she would not be my lover
Way hey you rolling river
Because I was a tarry sailor
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
At last there came a Yankee skipper
Way hey you rolling river
He winked his eye and tipped his flipper
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
He sold the chief that firewater
Way hey you rolling river
And cross the river he stole his daughter
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter,
Way hey you rolling river
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Away, we're bound away
Cross the wide Missouri
