red river valley
From this valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For they say you are taking the sunshine,
That has brightened our path for awhile.
Won't you think of the valley you're leaving,
Oh how lonely and sad it will be,
And just think of the heart that you're breaking,
And the pain that you're leaving with me.
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 has loved you so true
