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 (Rio Bravo, Rio Bravo) While the river Rio Bravo, flows along (Rio Bravo)
