Shenandoah

from America by James Lanman

lyrics

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, I'm bound away, Across the wide Missouri

The Missouri is a mighty river
Away, you rolling river,
With Indians camped along her borders
Away, I'm bound away, Across the wide Missouri

Well a white man loved an Indian maiden,
With notions his canoe was laiden
Away, I'm bound away, Across the wide Missouri

For seven long years I courted Sally
Look away, you rolling river,
For seven more years I long to have her
Away, I'm bound away, Across the wide Missouri

Well it’s fair thee well my dear, I’m bound to leave you,
Far away you rolling river,
Oh Shenandoah, I’ll not deceive you,
Away, I'm bound away, Across the wide Missouri

Across the wide Missouri
Across the wide Missouri
Across the wide Missouri
Across the wide Missouri
