/ˌdaʊn ɪn ðə ˈvæli/
- a US folk song about a man who asks a woman if she loves him. Kurt Weill wrote an opera (1948) with the same name, based on the song. It begins: “Down in the valley, the valley so low,Hang your head over, hear the winds blow.Hear the winds blow, Dear, hear the winds blow.Hang your head over, hear the winds blow.”
