"Across the Wide Missouri"

(Ervin Drake - Jimmy Shirl)

My true love stands across the river
Far across the rolling river
On the banks I hear her calling
Away, we're bound away,
Across the wide Missouri.

Oh Shennandoah, I long to see you
Far across the rolling river
Shennandoah, I'll not deceive you
Away, we're bound away across the wide Missouri.

--- Instrumental ---

For seven years I've been a rover
Far across the rolling river
I'll return and be your lover
Away we're bound away across the wide Missouri...
