1. Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rollin' river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, we're bound away
'cross the wide Missouri

2. Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter...
(4th line: "Away, I'm bound away...")

3. Oh, Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you...

4. Oh, Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you...

5. For seven years, I've been a rover...

6. But I'll return to be your lover...

7. Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you...
(4th line: "Away, I'm bound away...")
