Doc Watson - Banks Of The Ohio Lyrics

Align:    
  • (break)
  • I asked my love to take a walk
  • Just a little ways with me
  • And as we walked and we would talk
  • All about our weddingday
  • (chorus)
  • Darling say that you'll be mine
  • In our home we'll happy be
  • Down beside where the waters flow
  • On the banks of the Ohio
  • (break)
  • I took her by her pretty white hand
  • I let her down that bank of sand
  • I pushed her in where she would drown
  • Lord, I saw her as she floated down
  • (chorus)
  • Returning home about twelve or one
  • Thinking "Lord, what a deed I've done?"
  • I killed the girl I love, you see
  • Because she would not marry me
  • (chorus)
  • (break)
  • The very next day at half past four
  • The sherrif walked right to my door
  • And he says "Young man, don't you try to run
  • You'll pay for this awful crime you've done"
  • (chorus)
