Chorus:

Up along the Ohio River
Over On The Old Kentucky Shore
Once dwelt a fair young maiden
Now there's a crepe upon her door

I walk down to the graveyard
Down by the Church of God
I looekd upon the one I love
That would soon be covered with sod

Repeat Chorus

The angels took my darlin'
God needed the one I love
I reached the old Kentucky shore too late
I'll make my plans and meet her up above

The last words that my darling spoke
Was tell the one I love goodbye
I'd like to see him before I go
But I will meet him in the sky

Repeat Chorus]]>
