Box Car Willie Red River Valley Lyrics

Red River Valley Lyrics

From this valley they say you are goin'

I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile

For they say you are takin' the sunshine

That has brightened our pathway a while



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 old boy that loved you so true



Far along by my dear I've been waiting

For those words that you never would say

But at last all my fond hopes have vanished

For to day, you are going away



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 old boy that loved you so true



Won't you think of this valley you're leavin'

And how lonely and sad it will be

And think of the heart that you are breakin'

And the grief that you are causing me



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 old boy that loved you so true
