Testo di Shenandoah

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you Look away, you rollin' river Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you Look away. We're bound away Across the wide Missouri Now the Missouri is a mighty river Look away, you rollin' river Indians camp along her border Look away. We're bound away Across the wide Missouri Well a white man loved an Indian maiden Look away, you rollin' river With notions his canoe was laden Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter Look away, you rollin' river It was for her I'd cross the water Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri For seven long years I courted Sally Look away, you rollin' river Seven more years I longed to have her Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri Well, it's fare-thee-well, my dear I'm bound to leave you Look away you rollin' river Shenandoah, I will not deceive you Look away, we're bound away Across the wide Missouri
