Galveston

Galveston, oh Galveston

I still hear your sea winds blowin'

I still see her dark eyes glowin'

She was 21 when I left GalvestonGalveston, oh Galveston

I still hear your sea waves crashing

While I watch the cannons flashing

I clean my gun and dream of GalvestonI still see her standing by the water

Standing there lookin' out to sea

And is she waiting there for me?

On the beach where we used to runGalveston, oh Galveston

I am so afraid of dying

Before I dry the tears she's crying

Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun

At Galveston, at Galveston
