Red River Valley

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.

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.
