Chief Shenandoah was one the greatest Americans who ever lived. He was adopted into the Oneida tribe, and became an elected chief. He stood 6' 5" (196 cm) and lived to be 105 years old (1710–1816). This song originated among the fur traders on the Missouri River in the early 19th Century, and is about a fur trader suing for the hand of the legendary Chief Shenandoah's daughter. The lyrics later became conflated with the beautiful Shenandoah river valley of western Virginia. A reconstruction of the early 19th Century version, from Wikipedia:


Missouri, she's a mighty river.
Away you rolling river.
The redskins' camp, lies on its borders.
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

The white man loved the Indian maiden,
Away you rolling river.
With notions his canoe was laden.
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

"O, Shenandoah, I love your daughter,
Away you rolling river.
I'll take her 'cross yon rolling water."
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

The chief disdained the trader's dollars:
Away you rolling river.
"My daughter never you shall follow."
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

At last there came a Yankee skipper.
Away you rolling river.
He winked his eye, and he tipped his flipper.
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

He sold the chief that fire-water,
Away you rolling river.
And 'cross the river he stole his daughter.
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

"O, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away you rolling river.
Across that wide and rolling river."
Ah-ha, I'm bound away, 'Cross the wide Missouri.

Wish our next generation preserve this kind of music. A music is a time machine, it tells a story from the past

@DourFlower

there will always be young folk with an appreciation for the past, rest easy!

@floydfarless8448

Thank you for preserving America the way it really was.
True lyrics and music that represented the Americans that lived at the time.

Our friend, Tom Roush has been called home. Tom fell and hit hit his head. He was in the hospital for a lengthy time. Tom died on Aug. 30, 2021.

To read more of his obituary, Google Tom Roush + NC. 😞

@patriciajrs46

That is so sad. My condolences to his family and all of you who knew and loved him. I am very sorry.

@willconklin2760

Melts my heart like dropped ice cream in the Shenandoah River. Absolute banger🔥🔥🔥

@lalaland962

I remember learning this in eighth grade music class. It's a beautiful, haunting song, and you sing it just right.

@PixelPlayz101

We’re singing it in 8th grade as well and we’re heading over to Shenandoah right this instant to stay there for a couple of nights :D
