Intro : I asked my love, to take a walk Take a walk, just a little ways, And as we walked, along we talked Of when would be, our wedding day. And only say, that you'll be mine, In no o thers arms entwined, Down beside where the waters flow, Down by the banks of the Ohio. I asked her if she'd marry me, And my wife forever be, She only turned her head away And had no other words to say. Refrain I plunged a knife into her breast, And told her she was going to rest, She cried 'Oh Willie, don't murder me, I'm not prepared for eternity.' I took her by her golden curls, And drug her down to the riverside, And there I pushed her into drown, And I watched her as she floated down. Refrain And going home between twelve and one, And cried 'Oh Lord, What have I done, I've killed the only girl I love, Because she would not marry me. Refrain
