Olivia Newton John Banks Of Ohio Lyrics

Banks Of Ohio lyrics

I asked my love to take a walk, to take a walk, just a little walk

Down the side where the waters flow, down by the banks of the Ohio



Chorus:

And only say that you'll be mine, in no other's arms entwined

Down the side where the waters flow, down by the banks of the Ohio



I held a knife against his breast, as into my arms he pressed

He cried, "My love, don't you murder me, I'm not prepared for eternity"



(chorus)



I wandered home 'tween twelve and one, I cried, "My God, what have I done?

I've killed the only man I love, he would not take me for his bride"



(chorus)



Down by the banks of the Ohio
