Johnny Rodriguez Down On The Rio Grande Lyrics

Down On The Rio Grande Lyrics

I remember the palm trees swaying

Cross the river the sweet music playing

Down on the Rio Grande



Out on the levee with the full moon above me

A Mexican lady, Lord how she loved me

Down on the Rio Grande



Laugh and singing in the warm night air

Loving that woman with the raven hair

We were down on the Rio Grande



Strolling with my lover hand and hand

Lord I'd give anything to be

Down on the Rio Grande



Endless highways and wide-open spaces

Children smile with their sun burned faces

Down on the Rio Grande



All the love that my lady was giving

Was the sweetest part of living

Down on the Rio Grande



And if these memories could take me there

I'd be loving my woman with the raven hair

I'd be down on the Rio Grande



Strolling with my lover hand and hand

Lord I'd give anything to be

Down on the Rio Grande

Down on the Rio Grande



Strolling with my lover hand and hand

Lord I'd give anything to be

Down on the Rio Grande



Down on the Rio Grande

Down on the Rio Grande
