Shenandoah |
| The Missouri, she’s a might river |
| Away you rolling river |
| The red man’s camp lies on her borders |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| A white man loved an Indian maiden |
| Away you rolling river |
| With notions sweet his canoe was laden |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| O Shenandoah, I love your daughter |
| Away you rolling river |
| I’ll take her 'cross the rolling water |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| The chief disdained the trader’s dollars |
| Away you rolling river |
| My daughter never you shall follow |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| At last there came a Yankee skipper |
| Away you rolling river |
| He winked his eye, and he tipped his flipper |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| He sold the chief that fire-water |
| Away you rolling river |
| And 'cross the river he stole his daughter |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
| O Shenandoah, I long to hear you |
| Away you rolling river |
| Across the wide and rolling water |
| Away, we’re bound away across the wide |
| Missouri |
