[Verse 1]
Oh Shenandoah I long to hear you
Oh where you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah I long to hear you
Oh when I'm bound away cross the wide Missouri

[Verse 2]
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter
Oh where you rolling river?
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter
Oh when I'm bound away cross the wide Missouri

[Verse 3]
Oh Shenandoah I'm bound to leave you
Oh where you rolling river?
Oh Shenandoah I'll not deceive you
Away I'm bound away cross the wide Missouri
