I asked my love to take a walk,
To take a walk, just a little walk,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
And only say that you`ll be mine
In no others arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
I held a knife against her brest
As ino my arms she pressed,
She cried, "oh, willie, don`t murder me,
I`m not prepeared for eternity."
And only say that you`ll be mine
In no others arms entwine
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the old ohio
I started home `tween twelve and one,
I cried, "my god, what have i done?
Killed the only woman i loved,
Because she would not be my bride."
And only say that you`ll be mine
In no others arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
