From this valley, they say, you are going
 I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
 For you know you are taking the sunshine
 That has brightened the path for a while
 So come and sit by my side
 If you love me
 Do not hasten to beg me [?
 But remember the Red River valley
 And the Cowboy that loved you so true
 And deep within my soul
 I'm trying to recall
 A treasure that was lost so long ago
 Many a-dreams dead and gone
 Like the cowboy and his song
 Since I loved you
 On that old River River shorе
 How I long once again for that valley
 How I miss those bright еyes and that smile
 How I need your warm rays of sunshine
 To brighten my light for awhile
 Yes, I remember that Red Diver valley
 And in my heart the love we once knew
 Yes, I remember the songs and the stories
 For I’m that cowboy
 That now misses you
