Product Description
"Shenandoah" (also called simply "Oh
Shenandoah" or "Across the Wide Missouri") is a
traditional American folk song
of uncertain origin, dating to the early 19th century.
The song appears to have originated with Canadian and American voyageurs or
fur traders traveling down the Missouri
River in canoes, and has developed several different sets of lyrics. Some
lyrics refer to the American Indian chief Shenandoah
and a canoe-going trader who wants to marry his daughter. By the mid 1800s
versions of the song had become a sea shanty
heard or sung by sailors in various parts of the world.
