Down the Ohio

[Intro]
Everybody join in now!

[Chorus]
Come along, children, and sing a happy song
Play it on your old banjo (On the old banjo, oh, won't you)
Get on board, we're sailing down the river (Way down)
Sailing down the Ohio (Down the Ohio)

[Verse 1]
We do we do on a Saturday night?
Down the Ohio
Kiss the girls in the pale moonlight
Down the Ohio
I don't know, but I've been told
Down the Ohio
All that glitters can't be gold
Down the Ohio

[Chorus]
Why don't you
Come along, children, and sing a happy song
Play it on your old banjo (On the old banjo, oh, won't you)
Get on board, we're sailing down the river (Way down)
Sailing down the Ohio (Down the Ohio)

[Verse 2]
Now, if I die in Arkansas
Down the Ohio
Send me "collect" to my mother-in-law
Down the Ohio

[Chorus]
Why don't you
Come along, children, and sing a happy song
Play it on your old banjo (On the old banjo, oh, won't you)
Get on board, we're sailing down the river (Way down)
Sailing down the Ohio (Down the Ohio)

[Break]
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
(Everybody)
(Join in now)

[Verse 4]
Dance little Liza dance
Dance little Liza dance
Dance all night in the pale moonlight
And we'll all go home in the morning

[Outro]
Hi, ho, and away we go
Sailing on the river, on the Ohio
Hi, ho, and away we go
Sailing on the river, on the Ohio
Hi, ho, and away we go
Sailing on the river, on the Ohio
Hi, ho, and away we go
Sailing on the river, on the Ohio
