Down on the Banks of the Ohio - The Blue Sky Boys/The Holiness Singers

Come my love let's take a walk

Just a little way away

While we walk along we'll talk

Talk about our wedding day

Only say that you'll be mine

And in our home we'll happy be

Down beside where the waters flow

Down on the banks of the Ohio

I drew my knife across her throat

And to my breast she gently pressed

Oh please oh please don't murder me

For I'm unprepared to die you see

I taken her by her lily white hand

I let her down and I bade her stand

There I plunged her in to drown

And watched her as she floated down

Returning home tween twelve and one

Thinking of the deed done

I murdered a girl I love you see

Because she would not marry me

Only say that you'll be mine

And in our home we'll happy be

Down beside where the waters flow

Down on the banks of the Ohio

Next day as I returning home

I met the sheriff standing in the door

He said young man come with me and go

Down to the banks of the Ohio

Only say that you'll be mine

And in our home we'll happy be

Down beside where the waters flow

Down on the banks of the Ohio
