Trampled By Turtles Shenandoah
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you
I look away, rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
The chief disdained the trader's dollars
Look away, rolling river
My daughter, you shall never follow.
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
For seven years, he put it sadly
I look away, rolling river
For seven more, he longed to have her
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
She said she would not be my lover
Look away, rolling river
Because I was a dirty sailor
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
It's "Fare thee well," I'm bound to leave you
I look away, rolling river
Oh Shenandoah, I would not deceive you
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
At last, there came a Yankee skipper
Look away, rolling river
He winked his eye, and he tipped his flipper
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
Oh Shenandoah, I love you daughter
I look away, rolling river
I take her across the open water
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
Away, oh, bound away, across the wide Missouri
