(Jack Splittard/Randy Cierley)
|
At the foot of yon mountain, where the big river flows, there's a fond creation and a soft wind that blows.
|
There lives a fair maiden, she's the one I adore. She's the one I will marry on the Red River shore.
|
|
She wrote me a letter. She wrote it so kind and in that letter these words you will find.
|
"Come back to me, darling, you're the one I adore. You're the one I will marry on the Red River shore.
|
|
I jumped on my bronco and away I did ride to marry my true love on the Red River side.
|
But her pa knew the secret and with twenty and four come to fight this young cowboy on the Red River shore.
|
|
I grabbed my six shooter, spun 'round and 'round 'til six men were wounded and seven were down.
|
I can't fight an army of twenty and four when I'm bound for my true love on the Red River shore.
|
|
At the foot of yon mountain, where the big river flows, there's a fond creation and a soft wind that blows.
|
And there lives a fair maiden, she's the one I adore, but never will marry on the Red River shore
