《Banks of the Ohio》歌词

[00:00:00] I went into his prison cell

[00:00:07] To write his story if he'd tell

[00:00:13] He spoke as tears fell from his eyes

[00:00:19] And he told me when and how and why

[00:00:24] And he said

[00:00:26] I asked my love to take a walk

[00:00:34] Just to walk a little ways

[00:00:42] And as we walked then we could talk

[00:00:50] About our future wedding day

[00:00:59] But when she said she could never be mine

[00:01:02] I held a knife against his breast

[00:01:10] As into my arms she pressed

[00:01:17] He cried "my love don't you murder me

[00:01:24] I'm not prepared for eternity"

[00:01:31] Then only say that you'll be mine

[00:01:38] And in no others' arms entwine

[00:01:46] Down beside where the waters flow

[00:01:52] Down by the Banks of the Ohio

[00:01:59] I started home 'tween twelve and one

[00:02:06] I cried "My God what have I done "

[00:02:13] I've killed the one I love tonight

[00:02:20] Because she would not be my bride

[00:02:29] Well only say that you'll be mine

[00:02:37] And in no others' arms entwine

[00:02:45] Down beside where the waters flow

[00:02:52] Down by the Banks of the Ohio

[00:02:59] Down by the Banks of the Ohio

[00:03:21] Save my soul lord

[00:03:24] Save my soul

[00:03:27] There beside where the waters flow

[00:03:34] Down by the Banks of the Ohio
