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 cowboy that loved you so true
I have waited a long time my darling
For those words that you never did say
I have waited a long time my darling
Now they tell me you're going away
Come and sit by my side ere you leave me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
But remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true
When you go to your home in the city
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 cowboy that loved you so true
And remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true
