Red River Valley

Red River Valley - Boxcar Willie

From this valley

They say you are goin'

I will miss your bright eyes

And sweet smile

For they say you

Are takin' the sunshine

That has brightened

Our pathway a while

Come and sit by my side

If you love me

Do not hasten to bid me adieu

Just remember the Red River Valley

And the old boy

That loved you so true

Far along by my dear

I've been waiting

For those words that

You never would say

But at last all

My fond hopes have vanished

For to day you are going away

Come and sit by my side

If you love me

Do not hasten to bid me adieu

Just remember the Red River Valley

And the old boy that

Loved you so true

Won't you think of

This valley you're leavin'

And how lonely and sad it will be

And think of the heart

That you are breakin'

And the grief that you are causing me

Come and sit by my side if you love me

Do not hasten to bid me adieu

Just remember the Red River Valley

And the old boy that loved you so true
