Banks Of The Ohio – Joan BaezBy 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 mineIn no others arms entwine,Down beside where the waters flow,Down by the banks of the old ohio.I held a knife against her brestAs 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 mineIn no others arms entwineDown beside where the waters flowDown by the banks of the old ohioI 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 mineIn no others arms entwine,Down beside where the waters flow,Down by the banks of the old ohio. www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
