Titel: BANKS OF THE OHIO
I ask my love to take a walk, to take a walk,
just a little walk, down beside where the waters flow,
down by the banks of the Ohio.
Refrain:
-------------------------------------------------------
And only say that you'll be mine
in no other's arms entwine,
down beside where the waters flow,
down by the banks of the Ohio.
-------------------------------------------------------
I held a knife against her breast
as into my arms she pressed,
she cried: " Oh, Willie, don't murder me,
I'm not prepared for eternity."
Refrain:
-------------------------------------------------------
And only say...
-------------------------------------------------------
I started home 'tween twelve and one,
I cried: " My God ! What have I done ?
Killed the only woman I loved,
because she would not be my bride."
Refrain:
-------------------------------------------------------
And only say...
-------------------------------------------------------
