Lyric

Well, I turned 21 with my hands around a gun

Stumblin' through the burnin' fields of war

Chokin' on the dust and sand of a harsh and foreign land

I lost sight of just who I was before

Send my love to the Red River Valley

Sing a song from my Oklahoma home

Tell the one who's waitin' there with the long braid in her hair

When I come returnin', I'll be never more to roam

Well, I faced the enemy and he was just as brave as me

Through the night, we took the fight in turns

When our mortar cut him down, he lay groanin' on the ground

And we could not understand his dyin' words

Send my love to the Red River Valley

Sing a song from my Oklahoma home

Tell the one who's waitin' there with the long braid in her hair

When I come returnin', I'll be never more to roam

When they saw what we had done, they said we're proud of you son

You did what we brought you here to do

Will you fight with us again and I thought of my good man

And I signed my name and swore to see it through

Send my love to the Red River Valley

Sing a song from my Oklahoma home

Tell the one who's waitin' there with the long braid in her hair

When I come returnin', I'll be never more to roam

- It's already the end -
