Shenandoah I long to hear you
Roll away you rolling river
Shenandoah I long to see you
Haul away, we’re bound away
Across the wide Missouri
The white man loved the Indian maiden
Within oceans his canoe was laden
Oh Shenandoah I love you daughter
I’ll take her across those raging waters
Missouri she’s a mighty river
Missouri she’s a mighty river
Oh Shenandoah I won’t deceive you
Oh Shenandoah I’ll never grieve you
Oh Shenandoah I long to hear you
Oh Shenandoah I long to hear you
