The River
Various Artists Lyrics


Red River Valley

From this valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and your 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 cowgirl who loved you so true

I’ve been thinking a long time, my darling
Of the sweet words you never would say
Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish
For they say you are going away

Do you think of the valley you’re leaving
O how lonely, how dreary it will be
Do you think of the kind hearts you’re breaking
And the pain you are causing to me

They will bury me where you have wandered
Near the hills where the daffodils grow
When you’re gone from the Red River Valley
For I can’t live without I know

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 who loved you so true
And the cowgirl who loved you so true
