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 brighten our pathway awhile. Chorus: Come and sit by my side if you love me, Do not hasten to bid me a due. Just remember the red river valley, And the hobo thats loved you so true. For a long time my dear I've been waiting, For those words that you never would say. Now at last all my fond hopes have vanished, For they say you are going away. Sing Chorus Won't you think of this valley your leaving, And how lonely and sad it will be. And think of the heart that your breakin, And the grieve that you are causing me. Sing Chorus
