►LYRICS - Shenandoah
Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Look away rollin' river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

The Missouri, she's a mighty river
Look away rollin' river
Indians camp along her borders
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

Well, a white man, he loved an Indian maiden
Look away rollin' river
And with notions, his canoe was laden
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

And he said, Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Look away rollin' river
And it was for her, I crossed the waters
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

Well, it's fair-thee-well*, I'm bound to leave you
Look away rollin' river
Oh Shenandoah, I'll not deceive you
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you
Look away rollin' river
Oh Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Look away, I'm bound away
Across the wide Missouri

(Shenandoah, I long to see you) x3
Shenandoah, I long to hear you

(Shenandoah) x3
Oh Shenandoah

* Fair-thee-well = farewell

The song is about a fur-trader who traveled down the Missouri River in a canoe, in the 1700s, and asked Chief Shenandoah if he could marry his daughter. Like lots of traditional folk songs, there are many versions of the lyrics and song title out there!

Fun fact: George Washington named the Shenandoah River and valley in honor of the Chief, who lived to be over 100 years old.
