Red River Valley - Gene Autry/Jo Stafford

From this valley they say you are going

I will miss your bright

Eyes and sweet smile

For they say you are taking the sunshine

That has brightened our pathways a while

Do you think of the valley you're leaving

Oh how lonely and dreary it will be

Do you think of the fond

Heart you're breaking

And the sadness you cast over me

For a long time my dear I've been waiting

For the words that you never would say

And alas my poor heart you are breaking

For they tell me you're going away

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 one who has loved you so true
