I asked my l  ove to take a w  alk,
To take a walk, just a little w  alk,
Down bes  ide where the waters f  low,
Bown by the   banks of the   Ohi  o.
And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
I held a knife against her breast
As into my arms she pressed,
She cried, "oh, willie, don't murder me,
I'm not prepared for eternity."
And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
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."
And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the old ohio.
