GALVESTON Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea winds blowing I still see her dark eyes glowing She was twenty-one When I left Galveston Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea waves crashing While I watch the cannon flashing And I clean my gun And I dream of Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there, looking out to sea And is she waiting there for me? On the beach where we used to run Galveston, oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying Before I dry the tears she's crying Before I see your sea birds flying In the sun, at Galveston
