Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, we're bound away,
Cross the wide Missouri

Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Away, you rolling river
For her I'd cross your roaming waters
Away, I'm bound away,
Cross the wide Missouri

'Tis seven years since last I've seen you
Away, you rolling river
'Tis seven years since last I've seen you
Away, we're bound away,
Cross the wide Missouri

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you rolling river.
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, we're bound away,
Cross the wide Missouri
