Banks Of the Ohio

Doc Watson

Transposer:

I asked my love to take a walk Just a little ways with me And as we walked and we would talk All about our weddingday Darling say that you'll be mine In our home we'll happy be Down beside where the waters flow On the banks of the Ohio   I took her by her pretty white hand I let her down that bank of sand I pushed her in where she would drown Lord, I saw her as she floated down (Refrain) Returning home about twelve or one Thinking "Lord, what a deed I've done?" I killed the girl I love, you see Because she would not marry me (Refrain) The very next day at half past four The sherrif walked right to my door And he says "Young man, don't you try to run You'll pay for this awful crime you've done" (Refrain)

Dans cette chanson, un jeune homme invite sa bien-aimée à se promener, exprimant son souhait de bâtir une vie avec elle. Cependant, la situation bascule lorsqu'il commet un acte tragique en la plongeant dans l'eau, entraînant sa noyade. Après avoir réalisé l'horreur de son acte, il est confronté à sa culpabilité, tandis que la justice s'approche de lui. Ce récit met en lumière les passions et les tragédies qui peuvent naître dans les relations amoureuses, mêlant amour, désespoir et conséquences fatales.
