Olivia Newton-John - Banks Of The Ohio Lyrics
(traditional)I asked my love to take a walkTo take a walk, just a little walkDown beside where the waters flowDown by the banks of the ohioAnd only say that youll be mineIn no others arms entwineDown beside where the waters flowDown by the banks of the ohioI held a knife against his breastAs into my arms he pressedHe cried my love, dont you murder meIm not prepared for eternityI wandered home tween twelve and oneI cried, my god, what have I done?Ive killed the only man I loveHe would not take me for his brideAnd only say that youll be mineIn no others arms entwineDown beside where the waters flowDown by the banks of the ohio
