Porter Wagoner

Porter Wagoner - Banks Of The Ohio lyrics

I asked my love to take a walk just to walk a little ways

As we talked about our future wedding day

And when she told me she would never be mine

I placed a knife against her breast as into my arms she pressed

She cried oh please don't murder me I'm not prepared for eternity

Only say that you'll be mine in no other's arms entwined

Down beside where the waters flow down by the banks of the Ohio

I started home between twelve and one I cried my God what have I done

I've murdered the only girl I loved because she would not be my bride

Only say that you'll be mine...
