Banks Of The Ohio - Bill Monroe



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 her brest

As into my arms she pressed

She cried, "Oh, Willie, don't murder me,

I'm not prepared for eternity"



* Refrain



I 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"



* Refrain
