[Chorus]
So long to the Red River Valley
Our ropin' and wranglin' is through
And so farewell to the home corral
And all the old friends that we knew
Goodbye to the old empty bunkhouse
Where we dream the hours away
Send our mail to the end of the trail
So long to the Red River Valley

[Verse 1]
I'll roll up my beddin' and pack up my clothes
And lighten my heart with a song
For where I'll be travelin', nobody knows
So I'll have to be movin' a long

[Chorus]
Ludi, ludi, ludi, ludi
