Shenandoah
Traditional, recorded by Andrew Calhoun on Grapevine.
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, you rolling river,
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.
Shenandoah, I love your daughter,
Away, you rolling river,
For her I've crossed the rolling water
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.
Missouri, she's a mighty river
Away, you rolling river,
When she rolls down her topsails quiver
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.
Seven years, I courted Sally,
Away, you rolling river
Seven more, I longed to have her
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.
Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you
Away, you rolling river,
Oh Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.
