Shenandoah lyrics

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

Oh, Shenandoah was a redskin maiden

And a white man loved that redskin maiden

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

Oh, the white man loved the Indian maiden

With tradegoods his canoe was laden

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

The chief refused the white man's offer

And vowedthe white man should not have her

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

One da a ship sailed up the river

A d brought the chief a strong firewater

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

He sold the chief some firewater

And stole the gal across the water

Oh, Missouri, she#s a mighty water

Away you rolling river!

The redskin camp lies on her border

Away we're bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri!

Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter

I'll take her sailing 'cross the water
