From this valley they say you are going
Wish I miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For they say you are taking the sunshine
That has brightened our pathways awhile

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 girl who loved you so true

For such a long time I have waiting
For the sweet words you never would say
Now, alas, Oh my fond hopes all vanish
For they say 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 cowgirl that loved you so true

They come sit by my side, if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowgirl that loved you so true
And the cowgirl that loved you so true
