Banks of Ohio Lyrics

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 Ohio
and only say that you'll be mine in no other's arms entwine
down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio
I held a knife against his breast as into my arms he pressed
he cried my love don't you murder me I'm not prepared for eternity
and only say that you'll be mine in no other's arms entwine
down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio
I wandered home 'tween twelve and one I cried my god what have I done
I've killed the only man I love he would not take me for his bride
and only say that you'll be mine in no other's arms entwine
down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio
down by the banks of the Ohio
