Red River ValleyFrom this valley they say you are going.We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile,For they say you are taking the sunshineThat has brightened our pathway a while.Come and sit by my side if you love me.Do not hasten to bid me adieu.But remember the Red River Valley,And the cowboy who loves you so true.I've been thinking a long time, my darling Of the sweet words you never would say. Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish For they say you are going away. Come and sit by my side if you love me.Do not hasten to bid me adieu.But remember the Red River Valley,And the cowboy who loves you so true.
