O Shenandoah * Sail Away Lyrics

O Shenandoah * Sail Away

Sail away, sail on out 
Cross the wide Missouri 
 
O Shenandoah I long to see you 
Far away you rollin` river 
O Shenandoah I long to see you 
Away I`m bound away `cross the wide Missouri 
 
Sail away, sail on out 
`Cross the wide Missouri 
O Shenandoah I am a rover 
Far away you rollin` river 
A-searchin` for the greenest clover 
Away I`m bound away `cross the wide Missouri 
 
So it`s fare thee well, my love 
I`m bound to leave you 
Far away you rollin` river 
But Shenandoah I`ll ne`er deceive you 
Tho` away I`m bound away `cross the wide Missouri 
 
O Shenandoah I love your waters 
Far away you rollin` river 
O Shenandoah I long to see you 
Away I`m bound away 
`Cross the wide Missouri 
 
Sail away, sail on out 
`Cross the wide Missouri
