snakefarm - banks of the ohio lyrics

Loading...

i asked my love to go with me,
and take a walk a little way.
and as we walked, and as we talked
about our golden wedding day.

cho: then only say that you’ll be mine
and in no other arms entwine.
down beside, where the waters flow
down by the banks of the ohio.

i asked your mother for you dear
and she said you were too young.
and only say that you’ll be mine
and happiness in my home you’ll find.

i held a knife against your breast
and gently in my arms you pressed,
crying “baby, oh baby! don’t murder me
i am unprepared for eternity!”

goin down goin down down down down
goin down goin down down down down

i took you by your lily hand
and led you down where the waters stand;
i picked you up and i pitched you in
and watched you as you floated down.

i started home ‘tween twelve and one
cryin’ “my god! what have i done?
i’ve killed the only one that i ever loved
because you would not marry me.”

cho x2

goin down goin down down down down
