Red River Valley

	From this valley they say you are going
	I will miss your bright eyes and sweet
	smile
	For they say you are taking the sunshine
	That has brightened our path for a while
	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.
	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
