歌词：
Red River Valley
From this valley they say you are going
I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For I know you are taking the sunshine
That has lighted my pathway awhile
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 that has loved you so true
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the one who has loved you so true
Red River Valley
From this valley
They say you are leaving.
We shall miss your bright eyes
And sweet smile,
For you take with you
All of the sunshine
That has brightened our pathway a while.
＊Then come it by my side if you love me.
Do not hasten to bid me adieu.
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that loved you so true.＊
For a long time, my darling , I've waited
For the sweet words you never would say.
Now alas, all my fond hopes have vanished,
For they say that you are going away.

《红河谷》
人们说你要离开这河谷。我们将怀念你的明眸和甜蜜微笑。因为你带走所有的阳光，它曾照亮我们的路。
＊来坐在我身旁如果你爱我。不要离开得这样匆忙。你可要记住这红河谷，还有那真爱你的牛仔。＊
亲爱的，我已经等待了很久等待你不愿说的蜜语，可现在我一切希望均成泡影，因为人们说你要离开。
