Banks Of The Ohio

[00:07.44] I asked my love to take a walk
[00:14.31] Take a walk just a little ways
[00:20.36] And as we walked, along we talked
[00:26.78] Of when would be our wedding day
[00:33.33] And only say that you'll be mine
[00:40.06] In no other's arms entwined
[00:46.45] Down beside where the waters flow
[00:52.59] Down by the banks of the Ohio
[00:59.12] I asked her if she'd marry me
[01:05.87] And my wife forever be
[01:11.88] She only turned her head away
[01:18.15] And had no other words to say
[01:24.66] And only say that you'll be mine
[01:31.50] In no other's arms entwined
[01:37.87] Down beside where the waters flow
[01:43.73] Down by the banks of the Ohio
[01:50.20] I plunged a knife into her breast
[01:56.87] And told her she was going to rest
[02:03.25] She cried "Oh Willy, don't murder me
[02:09.52] I'm not prepared for eternity"
[02:16.00] I took her by her golden curls
[02:22.45] And drug her down to the river side
[02:28.61] And there I threw her into drown
[02:34.77] And I watched her as she floated down
[02:41.11] And only say that you'll be mine
[02:47.76] In no other's arms entwined
[02:54.08] Down beside where the waters flow
[03:00.09] Down by the banks of the Ohio
[03:08.47] And going home between twelve and one
[03:14.40] I cried "Oh Lord, what have I done?"
[03:20.83] I've killed the only girl I love
[03:27.21] Because she would not marry me
[03:33.51] And only say that you'll be mine
[03:40.28] In no other's arms entwined
[03:46.40] Down beside where the waters flow
[03:52.55] Down by the banks of the Ohio
[03:58.85]
