Hooray, you rolling river,
Oh, Shenandoah's a rolling river,
Ah-hah, I'm bound away to the wild Missouri!
Oh, Shenandoah's a packet sailor, etc.
My Tommy's gone, and I 'll go too,
Hurrah, you high-low!
For without Tommy I can't do,
My Tommy 's gone a high-low!
My Tommy's gone to the Eastern shore,
Chorus.
