Oh' Shenandoah' I long to hear you

Away' you rollin' river

O Shenandoah' I long to hear you

Away I'm bound to go

'Cross the wide Missouri

'Tis seven long years since I last saw you

Away' you rollin' river

'Tis seven long years since I last saw you

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
