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