Artist/Band: Olivia Newton-John
Lyrics for Song: Banks Of The Ohio
Lyrics for Album: Definitive Collection [2007]



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



Chorus:

Only say that you'll be mine

In our home we'll happy be

Down beside where the waters flow

On the banks of the Ohio



I held a knife against her breast

As into my arms she pressed

She said Willie, 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

There I throwed her in to drown

I watched her as she floated down



Was walking home tween twelve and one

Thinkin' of what I had done

I killed a girl, my love you see

Because she would not marry me



The very next morn about half past four

The Sheriff came knocked at my door

He said now young man come now and go

Down to the Banks of the Ohio
