This is an old tune , I am not sure who wrote it or sang it first . Someone
may like to have all the lyrics .
RED RIVER VALLEY
>From this valley , they say you are going .
I will miss your bright eyes & sweet smile .
For they say you are taking the sunshine,
That has brightened our pathway awhile .
CHORUS:
Come & sit by my side , if you love me .
Do not hasten to bid me adieu.
Just remember the Red River Valley,
And the home-boy that loved you so true .
For a long time ,my dear , I've been waiting .
For those words that you never would say.
But at last all my fond hopes have vanished ,
For they say you are going away.
CHORUS
Won't you think of this valley your leaving ,
And how lonely & sad it will be .
And think of the heart, that you are breaking ,
And the grief that you are causing me .
CHORUS
