Verse
B E
One evenin' in june as I rambled
B E
The green woods and valleys among
B E
Mosquitos were buzzin' harmonious
B E
In tune with the whippoorwill song
B F#
The frogs in the marshes were croakin'
B G#m
The tree toads were whistlin' for rain
B E
And the partridges round me were drummin'
B E
On the banks of the little Eau Pleine
[Instrumental]
B F#
[Verse III]
B E
It was then I beheld a young maiden
B E
Who was walkin' alone on the shore
B E
She was mournin' off for a young raftsman
B E
sayin' I fear I will see him no more
B F#
He went off on a fleet with Ross Gamble
B G#m
And he left me in sorrow and pain
B E
And it's over two months since he started
B E
From the banks of the little Eau Pleine
[Instrumental]
B F#
[Verse IV]
B E x1
His pants were made out of two meal sacks
B E
with a patch of foot square on each knee
B E x1
His shirt and his jacket were dyed
B E
with the bark of a butternut tree
B F# x1
He wore a large open-faced ticker
B G#m
With almost a yard of steel chain
B E
when he went away with Ross Gamble
B E
From the banks of the little Eau Pleine
[Instrumental]
B F#
[Verse V]
B E x1
He was stout and broad shouldered and manly
B E
His height was about six-foot-one
B E x1
His hair was inclined to be sandy
B E
His whiskers as red as the sun
B F# x1
His name it was honest John Murphy
B G#m
And on it there nere was a stain
B E
For he loved the bold Wisconsin River
B E
It's the reason he left the Eau Pleine
[Instrumental]
B F#
[Verse VI]
B E
If John Murphy's the name of your raftsman
B E
I used to know him very well
B E
But sad is the tale I must tell you
B E
Your Johnny was drowned in the dells
B F#
We buried him 'neath the scrub Nor'way
B G#m
You'll never behold him again
B E
No stone marks the spot where your Johnny
B E
Sleeps far from the little Eau Pleine
[Instrumental]
B F#
[Verse VII]
B E
My curses attend you Wisconsin
B E
May your rapids and falls cease to roar
B E x1
May every toll havin' sandbar
B E
Be as dry as a log schoolhouse floor
B F#
May the willows on all of your islands
B G#m
Lie down like a field of ripe grain
B E
for takin' my only love Johnny
B E
From the Banks of the Little Eau Pleine
[Outro]
