O Shenandoah I long to see you
And hear your rolling river
O Shenandoah I long to see you
Away we're bound away
Across the wide Missouri
Tis' seven long years since last I see you
And hear your rolling river
O Shenandoah just to be near you
Away we're bound away
Across the wide Missouri
Where once we'd walk beside the Water
And hear that rolling river
T'is silent now as I pass over
Away we're bound away across the wide Missouri
Farewell my dear
I soon must leave you
Away you rolling river
O Shenandoah I long to see you
Away we're bound away across the wide Missouri
O Shenandoah I long to see you
And hear your rolling river
O Shenandoah I long to see you
Away we're bound away
Across the wide Missouri
Across the wide Missouri
