1. DFrom this valley they D7say you are Ggoing
We will Dmiss your briH7ght eyes and Emsweet smile
For Dthey say you D7are taking the Gsunshine
That Dhas brightened A7our pathways Dawhile
2. 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 cowboy who loved you so true
3. 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
4. Do you think of the valley you`re leaving
Oh how lonely and how dreary it will be
And do you think of the kind hearts you`re breaking
And the pain you are causing to me
5. They will bury me where you have wandered
Near the hills where the daffodils grow
When you`re gone from Red River valley
For I can`t live without you I know
