8. Shenandoah
There are many versions of the beautiful "Shenandoah" as there are several Shenandoahs in the United States. The Shenandoah River Valley of Virginia, one of the most luxuriant areas in the country, was the scene of several intensive Civil War campaigns.
Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, you rolling river,
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, I'm bound away,
'Cross the wide Missouri.
Shenandoah, I love your daughter,
Away, you rolling river,
I'll take her 'cross the rolling water,
Away, I'm bound away,
'Cross the wide Missouri.
Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, you rolling river,
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, I'm bound away,
'Cross the wide Missouri.
