O Shenandoah, I long to see you, Away, you rollin' river. O Shenandoah, I long to see you. Away I'm bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri. O Shenandoah, I love your daughter, Away, you rollin' river. O Shenandoah, I love your daughter, Away I'm bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri. Oh Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you Away, you rollin' river. O Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you, Away I'm bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri. For seven long years I've been a rover, Away, you rollin' river, But I'll return to be your lover, Away I'm bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri.
