Banks Of The Ohio (Revisited) by Sonja

Chorus:
Only say that you'll be mine,
In no other's arms entwine,
Down beside where the waters flow,
Down by the Banks of the Ohio.

I asked my love to take a walk,
Down the aisle to with me to go.
Down beside, where the waters flow,
Down by the banks of the Ohio.

(Chorus)

I said, "Oh, please don't do me wrong,
But I'm near five months along."
He said, "How do I know it's mine
Just because we have entwined?"

(Chorus)

I held a knife against his shirt,
Because he was a total jerk!
He cried, "Oh, baby, can't you see
That I am unprepared for paternity!"

(Chorus)

I took him by his hairy, big hand,
And I led him down where the waters stand.
He cried, "Oh, crap!" as I pushed him in
And watched him as he floated by.

(Chorus)

I started home 'twixt twelve and one;
I cried, "Oh, Ma! What have I done?
Killed the only feller I loved
Cause he done knocked me up and run!"

(Chorus)
