BANKS OF THE OHIO

D                                      A7

I asked my love to take a walk

                                           D
To take a walk, just a little walk

                                                 G
Down beside where the waters flow

                    D         A7           D
Down by the banks of the Ohio

 

D                                       A7
And only say that you'll be mine

                                           D
In no others' arms entwine

                                                 G
Down beside where the waters flow

                    D         A7           D
Down by the banks of the Ohio


 


I held a knife against his breast
As into my arms he pressed
He cried "my love, don't you murder me
I'm not prepared for eternity"

I wandered home 'tween twelve and one
I cried, "My God, what have I done?"
I've killed the only man I love
He would not take me for his bride

And only say that you'll be mine
In no others' arms entwine
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
