Down on the Banks of the Ohio Lyrics – The Blue Sky Boys
Singer: The Blue Sky Boys
Title: Down on the Banks of the Ohio
Come my love let’s take a walk
Just a little way that way
While we walk along, we’ll talk
Talk about our wedding day
Only say that you’ll be mine
And in our home we’ll happy be
Down beside where the waters flow
Down on the banks of the Ohio
I drew my knife across her throat
And to my breast she gently pressed
Oh please, oh please don’t you murder me
For I’m unprepared to die you see
I taken her by her lily white hand
I led her down in a bed of sand
There I plunged her in to drown
And watched her as she floated down
Return home ‘tween twelve and one
Thinking of the deed I’d done
I murdered a girl I love you see
Because she would not marry me
Only say that you’ll be mine
And in our home we’ll happy be
Down beside where the waters flow
Down on the banks of the Ohio
Next day as I returning home
I met the Sheriff standing in the door
He said, “young man come with me and go
Down to the Banks of the Ohio”
Only say that you’ll be mine
And in our home we’ll happy be
Down beside where the waters flow
Down on the banks of the Ohio
