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 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 loved you so true
|
|
Won't you think of the valley you're leaving
|
Oh how lonely, how sad it will be?
|
Oh think of the fond heart you're breaking
|
And the grief you are causing to me
|
|
As you go to your home by the ocean
|
May you never forget those sweet hours
|
That we spent in the Red River Valley
|
And the love we exchanged mid the flowers
|
|
