Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
Oh, Shenandoah was a redskin maiden
And a white man loved that redskin maiden
Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
Oh, the white man loved the Indian maiden
With tradegoods his canoe was laden
Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
The chief refused the white man's offer
And vowedthe white man should not have her
Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
One da a ship sailed up the river
A d brought the chief a strong firewater
Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
He sold the chief some firewater,
And stole the gal across the water
Oh, Missouri, she#s a mighty water
Away you rolling river!
The redskin camp lies on her border
Away we're bound to go
'Cross the wide Missouri!
Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter
I'll take her sailing 'cross the water
