Red River Valley

Red River Valley - Billy Rivers

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 brightened our pathway 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 are breaking

And the grief you are causing to me

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 brightened our pathways a while

Come and sit by my side if you love me

Do not hasten to bid me a-dieu

But remember the red river valley

And the cowboy that loved you so true
