On The Banks Of The Ohio
I ask my love to take a walk
To take a walk just a little walk
Down beside where the water flows
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Then only say that you´ll be mine
In no other arms in twine
Down beside where the water flows
Down by the banks of the Ohio
I held a knife against her breast
As into my arms she pressed
She cried my Llorddon´t you murder me
I´m not prepared for eternity
And only say that you´ll be mine
In no other arms in twine
Down beside where the water flows
Down by the banks of the Ohio
I started home tween tvelwe and one
I cried my God what have I done
I´ve killed the only women I loved
Because she would not to be my bride
And only say that you´ll be mine
In no other arm in twine
Down beside where the water flows
Down by the banks of the Ohio
And only say that you´ll be mine
In no other arm in twine
Down beside where the water flows
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Down by the banks of the Ohio
