Red River

[Verse] From Palo Duro Canyon outside Amarillo Texas The prairie dog town fork of the Red River flows Headed cross the plains along the coast of Oklahoma To the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico Red River I know you I know you of old You have filled up my pockets with quicksand and gold Susanna oh Susanna when it comes my time Bury me south of that Red River line My great grandfather came to that Red River line And camped on the north side until it was time To cross or to stay to be sooner or not He headed south to San Antone they said he liked it hot Here's to Charlie Goodnight and Mr. Loving too Here's to Coronado, the Comanche, and the blues Here's to the bootleggers and the oilfield crews Here's to the one and all of us Red River fools
