Текст песни Banks Of The Ohio

(arr. Jack Clement)

I asked my love to take a walk
Just to walk just a little way
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio.

And only say that you'll be mine
In no other arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio.

I held my knife against her breast
As into my arms she pressed
She cried, ''Oh, please don't murder me,
I'm not prepared for eternity.''

And only say that you'll be mine
In no other arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio.

--- Instrumental ---

I started home tween twelve and one
I cried my God what have I done
I've killed the only one I loved
Because she would not be my bride.

And only say that you'll be mine
In no other arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio...
