lyrics

Down on the Mississippi floating,
Long time I travel on the way,
All night the cottonwood a-toting,
Sing for my true love all the day.

Nelly was a lady,
Last night she died,
Toll the bell for lovely Nell,
My dark Virginny bride.

Down in the meadow, 'mong the clover,
I walked with my Nelly by my side;
Now all those happy days are over,
Farewell, my dark Virginny bride.
