Galveston Rose - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

Down in old southern Texas I wandered one day[00:00:05]

Where the tropical sea breezes blow[00:00:11]

I there fell in love with a flower so rare[00:00:17]

And they called her the Galveston rose [00:00:23]

Her heart was as true as her blue smiling eyes[00:00:29]

And as fair as the lily that grows[00:00:35]

And the finest of gold in no way could compare[00:00:41]

With the curls of my Galveston rose [00:00:47]

I grew jealous and falsely accused her one day[00:00:53]

Said her love I no longer should know[00:00:59]

I've been true please believe me her little heart cried[00:01:05]

But I left her my Galveston rose [00:01:11]

Little then did I think that sometimes I'm repay[00:01:32]

And would reap every sorrow and care[00:01:38]

But as years passed along I grew lonely each day[00:01:44]

For the one I had left waiting there [00:01:50]

So I wrote to my darling and said I was wrong[00:01:56]

I'll return dear if you'll only wed[00:02:02]

But soon came a letter my flower had died[00:02:08]

And these are the words that I read [00:02:14]

Your sweetheart is peacefully sleeping tonight[00:02:20]

In a grave where the white violets grow[00:02:26]

And enclosed there's a curl a last token of love[00:02:31]

And a note from your Galveston Rose [00:02:37]

I was innocent dear though you left me alone[00:02:44]

But remember I loved only you[00:02:49]

And the lock that's enclosed is a curl from your rose[00:02:55]

Who'll be waiting in heaven for you[00:03:01]
