Banks Of The Ohio — текст песни (Charley Pride)

I asked my love to take a walk just to walk just a little way
Down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio
And only say that you`ll be mine in no other arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio

I held my knife against her breast as into my arms she pressed
She cried oh please don`t murder me I`m not compared for eternity
And only say that you`ll be mine...
[ mandolin - banjo ]
I started home tween twelve and one I cried my God what have I done
I`ve killed the only one I loved because she would not be my bride
And only say that you`ll be mine...
