TP, that's Knoxville Girl but they're pretty close to the same. LOLI asked my love to take a walkJust a walk a little wayAnd as we walk, oh, may we talkAll about our wedding dayOnly say that you’ll be mineIn our home we’ll happy beDown beside where the waters flowOn the banks of the OhioI held a knife against her breastAs into my arms she pressedShe said Willie, don’t you murder meI’m unprepared for eternityI took her by her lily white handAnd dragged her down that bank of sandThere I throwed her in to drownI watched her as she floated downWas walking home tween twelve and oneThinkin’ of what I had doneI killed a girl, my love you seeBecause she would not marry meThe very next morn about half past fourThe Sheriff came knocked at my doorHe said now young man come now and goDown to the Banks of the Ohio
