Ohio

Meet me in the evening, where the river is low

Meet me on the waters of the Ohio

No lines, no lines, the river is a river, not a line

My blood is the water and it’s darker and deeper than time

If the hounds are howling, then you cannot hide

My friend, I will meet you on the other side

No lines, no lines, the river is a river, not a line

My love is the water and it’s stronger and deeper than time

Meet me ’neath the moon, under the singing tree

If you are the first, stay there and wait for me

If no one comes by morning and the sun is a-rising red

If no one comes by morning, please forgive me, my friend

For I am dead
