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 old Ohio And only say that you'll be mine And no other arms entwine Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the old 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 prepeared for eternity And only say that you'll be mine And no others arms entwine Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the old Ohio I took a walk just a little walk I cried my god what have I done I killed the only woman I loved Because she would not be my bride And only say that you'll be mine And no other arms entwine Down beside where the waters flow Down by the banks of the old Ohio Down by the banks of the old Ohio
