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