Sur Le Pont d'Avignon

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 brightened our pathways 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 who has loved you so true

I've been thinking a long time, my darling

Of the sweet words you never would say

Now at last must my fond hopes all vanished

For they say you are going away

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 brightened our pathways awhile

I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
