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
For her I'd cross your roaming waters
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
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, I'm bound away
'Cross the wide Missouri
