Shenandoah

C. Dougherty

O Shenandoah, I hear you calling,

Hio! you rolling river,

O Shenandoah, I long to hear you,

Hio! I'm bound away,

'Cross the wide Missouri.

Missouri she's a mighty river,

Hio! you rolling river,

When she rolls down her topsails shiver,

Hio! I'm bound away,

'Cross the wide Missouri.

Farewell, my dearest, I'm bound to leave you;

Hio! you rolling river,

O Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you,

Hio! I'm bound away,

'Cross the wide Missouri.
