In The Valley Of The Rio Grande lyrics

In the valley of the Rio Grande

Is a brown-eyed Mexican maiden I want to see

In the valley of the Rio Grande

In a garden of roses she said she'd wait for me

To the valley of the Rio Grande I know I must go

'Cause my heart tells me go again

If I stay any longer she may find another to love her

So tonight I must ride for the valley of the Rio Grande

I can see the candle in her window

Every night she said would brightly burn

I've been travelin' anywhere the wind blows

But my heart tells me I must return

To the valley of the Rio Grande

As I ride I will pray that she waits there each day for me

Have I been gone too long?

Will she still be there where I left her?

In the garden that lies in the valley of the Rio Grande
