paroles de chanson Banks Of The Ohio - Pokey LaFarge

I asked my love
To take a walk
Just a walk
A little way
And as we walk oh may we talk
All about our wedding day

Only say that you'll be mine
In our home where happy be
Down beside where the waters flow
On the Banks of the Ohio

I held a knife against her breast
As into my arm she pressed
She said "Willy don't you murder me. I'm unprepared for eternity"

I took her by her lily white hand
And dragged her down that bank of sand
Where i throwed her in to drown
I watched her as she floated down

Was walkin' home
'Tween 12 and 1
Thinking of what i've done
I've killed a girl
My love you see
'Cause she would not marry me

The very next morn' about half past 4
Sheriff came and knocked om my door
He said "Young man come now and go, to the Banks of the Ohio."
