Текст песни Banks of the Ohio (Snakefarm) с переводом

I asked my love to go with me

And take a walk a little way

And as we walked, and as we talked

About our golden wedding day

Then only say that you’ll be mine

And in no other arms entwine

Down beside, where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

I asked your mother for you dear

And she said you were too young

And only say that you’ll be mine

And happiness in my home you’ll find

I held a knife against your breast

And gently in my arms you pressed

Crying «Baby, Oh Baby! Don’t murder me

I am unprepared for eternity!»

Goin down goin down down down down

Goin down goin down down down down

I took you by your lily hand

And led you down where the waters stand;

I picked you up and I pitched you in

And watched you as you floated down

I started home 'tween twelve and one

Cryin' «My God! What have I done?

I’ve killed the only one that I ever loved

Because you would not marry me.»

Then only say that you’ll be mine

And in no other arms entwine

Down beside, where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

Then only say that you’ll be mine

And in no other arms entwine

Down beside, where the waters flow

Down by the banks of the Ohio

Goin down goin down down down down
