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