Shenandoah - Bruce Springsteen

The Missouri, she’s a might river

Away you rolling river

The red man’s camp lies on her borders

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

A white man loved an Indian maiden

Away you rolling river

With notions sweet his canoe was laden

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

O Shenandoah, I love your daughter

Away you rolling river

I’ll take her 'cross the rolling water

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

The chief disdained the trader’s dollars

Away you rolling river

My daughter never you shall follow

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

At last there came a Yankee skipper

Away you rolling river

He winked his eye, and he tipped his flipper

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

He sold the chief that fire-water

Away you rolling river

And 'cross the river he stole his daughter

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri

O Shenandoah, I long to hear you

Away you rolling river

Across the wide and rolling water

Away, we’re bound away across the wide

Missouri
