Dolly Parton - Banks of the ohio
I went into his prison cellTo write his story, if he'd tellHe spoke as tears, fell from his eyesAnd he told me when, and how and whyAnd he saidI asked my love to take a walkJust to walk, a little waysAnd as we walked, then we could talkAbout our future wedding dayBut when she said, she could never be mineI held a knife against his breastAs into my arms she pressedHe cried "my love, don't you murder meI'm not prepared for eternity"Then only say that you'll be mineAnd in no others' arms entwineDown beside where the waters flowDown by the Banks of the OhioI started home 'tween twelve and oneI cried, "My God, what have I done?"I've killed the one I love tonightBecause she would not be my brideWell only say that you'll be mineAnd in no others' arms entwineDown beside where the waters flowDown by the Banks of the OhioDown by the Banks of the OhioSave my soul lordSave my soulThere beside where the waters flowDown by the Banks of the Ohio
