Oh Shenandoah traditional American
Oh Shenandoah I long to see you, away, you rolling river!
Oh Shenandoah I long to see you, away, I’m bound away Across the wide Missouri.
I long to see your shining valley, and hear your rolling river!
I long to see your shining valley, away, I’m bound away Across the wide Missouri.
