Red River shore
At the foot of yon mountain where the fountain doth
flow
The greatest creation, where the soft wind doth blow
There lived a fair maiden, she's the one i adore
She's the one I would marry on the Red River Shore
I spoke to her kindly, saying, "Will you marry me?
My fortune's not great "No matter" said she
"Your beauty's a plenty, you're the one I adore,
You're the one I would marry on the Red River Shore".
I asked her old father would he giver her to me
"No sir, she shan't marry no cowboy" said he
So I jumped on my bronco and away I did ride,
And left my true love on the Red River side.
She wrote me a letter, and she wrote it so kind
And in this letter these words you could find
"Come back to me darling, you're the one I adore,
You're the on I would marry on the Red River Shore".
So I jumped on my bronco and away I did ride
To marry my true love on the Red River side
But her father the secret had learned
And gathered an army of twenty and four,
To fight this young cowboy on the Red River Shore.
I drew my six shooter, shooting round after round
Till six men were wounded and seven were down
No use of an army of twenty and four.
I'm bound for my true love on the Red River shore.
