Shenandoah Lyrics

Songwriters: Dylan, Bob;

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you

Look away, you rollin' river

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



Now the Missouri is a mighty river

Look away, you rollin' river

Indians camp along her border



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



Well, a white man loved an Indian maiden

Look away, you rollin' river

With notions his canoe was laden



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



Oh Shenandoah, I love your daughter

Look away, you rollin' river

It was for her, I'd cross the water



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



For seven long years, I courted Sally

Look away, you rollin' river

Seven more years, I longed to have her



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



Well, it's fare-thee-well, my dear

I'm bound to leave you

Look away you rollin' river

Shenandoah, I will not deceive you



Look away, we're bound away

Across the wide Missouri



Look away, we're bound away

Look away, we're bound away

Look away, we're bound away

...
