Roger McGuinn - Shenandoah lyrics

Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter, Way hey you rolling river I'll take her cross yon rolling water Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri The chief disdained the trader's dollar Way hey you rolling river My daughter you shall never follow Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri For seven years I courted Sally Way hey you rolling river For seven more, I longed to have her Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri She said she would not be my lover Way hey you rolling river Because I was a tarry sailor Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri At last there came a Yankee skipper Way hey you rolling river He winked his eye and tipped his flipper Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri He sold the chief that firewater Way hey you rolling river And cross the river he stole his daughter Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter, Way hey you rolling river I'll take her cross yon rolling water Away, we're bound away Cross the wide Missouri
