Verse 1
Come all you young fellows that have a mind to roam,
Unto so foreign country, your station for to change,
Unto some foreign country away from here we'll go,
We'll lay down on the banks of the pleasant Ohio,
The pleasant Ohio.
Chorus
Through the wild woods we'll wander and chase the buffalo.
Verse 2
There are fishes in the river that are fitting for our use,
And fine lofty sugar canes that yield us fine juice,
And all sorts of game, my boys, besides the buck and doe,
We'll lay down on the banks of the pleasant Ohio,
The pleasant Ohio.
Chorus
Verse 3
Come all you young maidens and spin us some yarn,
To make us some clothing to keep ourselves warm,
For you can card and spin, my girls, while we can reap and mow,
We'll lay down on the banks of the pleasant Ohio,
The pleasant Ohio.
Chorus
Verse 4
Suppose those wild Indians should chance to come near,
We'll all unite together boys, free from all care,
We'll go into town my boys, and fire the fatal blow,
We'll lay down on the banks of the pleasant Ohio,
The pleasant Ohio.
Chorus
