Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri

Tis seven long years, since last I saw you
Away you rolling river
Tis seven long years, since last I saw you
Away, we're bound away across the wide Missouri

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, we’re bound away, across the wide Missouri

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Across the wide Missouri
