Red River Valley

From this valley they say
you are leaving
We shall miss your bright eyes
and sweet smile
For you take with you all of the sunshine
that has brightened our path for a while
Come by my side if you love me
do not hasten to bid me adieu
just remember the Red River Valley
and the cowboy that loved you so true
For a long time my darling
i’ve waited
for the sweet words you never would say
now at last all my fond hopes
have vanished
for they say that you’re going away.
Come by my side if you love me
do not hasten to bid me adieu
just remember the Red River Valley
and the cowboy that loved you so true
