Galveston Lyrics


Galveston, oh Galveston
I still hear your sea winds blowing
I still see her dark eyes glowing
She was twenty-one
When I left GalvestonGalveston, oh Galveston
I still hear your sea waves crashing
While I watch the cannon flashing
And I clean my gun
And I dream of GalvestonI still see her standin' by the water
Standin' there lookin' out to sea
And is she waiting there oh for me?
On the beach where we used to runGalveston, oh Galveston
I am so afraid of dyin'
Before I dry the tears she's cryin'
Before I see, your sea birds flyin'
In the sun at GalvestonAt Galveston
Oh, at Galveston
Oh, at Galveston

At Galveston
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Ooh, ooh

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
