(Choir: Rio Bravo, humming)
By the river
Rio Bravo
I walk all alone
And I wonder as I wander by the river
Where my love has flown
All the birds in the cottonwood above her
Know I love her
Know I care
But my dreams, like the songs, she sang in Spanish
Seem to vanish
In the air
I wonder where
So I wonder as I wander
Will love come along
Must I live ever after
By the memory of her song
While the river Rio Bravo flows along
(Choir: Rio Bravo, Rio Bravo)
While the river Rio Bravo flows along
(Choir: Rio Bravo)
