Текст песни "She Sang The Red River Valley" |
 (Pinto Bennett)
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.
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
Hanging in bars with professional guests
She picks up young buckaroo
Because he reminds her of someone she knew.
--- Instrumental ---
Telephone rings off the hook by her bed
The other ends Johnny with a gun to his head
Said you always looked 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
Said "You know he's always been crazy
It's best for us all that he's gone."
--- Instrumental ---
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.
She remembered the dance in the moon light
From the hall to the back of his car
He taught her how to drink whiskey
Three chords on a pawn shop 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...
