Lyrics to She Sang The Red River Valley
She Sang The Red River Valley Video:
At general delivery, she picks up her mail

Mama says Johnny just got out of jail

She hopes he don't know where she's at

How could she have ever loved that kind of cat



But she remembers the dance in the moonlight

>From the hall to the back of his car

He taught her how to drink whiskey

Three chords on a pawnshop guitar

She remembers the first time he kissed her

Back when the feeling was new

She sang the Red River Valley

For the cowboy who loved her so true



She's working each night at what she knows best

Hangin' in bars, a professional guest

She picks up a young buckaroo

Because he reminds her of someone she knew



The telephone rings off the hook by her bed

The other end's Johnny, a gun to his head

He said, You always look good in black

The next thing she heard was a bone-chilling crack



She pulled into town just at sunrise

Mama had strong coffee on

She said, You know he's always been crazy

It's best for us all that he's gone



So at the request of the family

Service was held for a few

She sang the Red River Valley

For the cowboy who loved her so true



But she remembered the dance in the moonlight

>From the hall to the back of his car

He taught her how to drink whiskey

Three chords on a pawnshop guitar

She remembered the first time he kissed her

Back when the feeling was new

She sang the Red River Valley

For the cowboy who loved her so true
