From this valley They say you are going
We will  miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For you take with you all of the sunshine
That has brightened our pathway a while
Then come sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true
For a long time,my darling,I've waited
For the sweet words you never would say.
Now alas,all my fond hopes have vanished,
For they say that you are going away.
Then come sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true
