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