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

Written by：Snow[00:00:01]

Down in old southern texas[00:00:05]

I wandered one day[00:00:08]

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

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

So rare[00:00:21]

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

Her heart was as true[00:00:29]

As her blue smiling eyes[00:00:31]

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

And the finest of gold[00:00:41]

In no way could compare[00:00:43]

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

I grew jealous and falsely[00:00:53]

Accused her one day[00:00:56]

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

Should know[00:01:02]

I've been true please believe me[00:01:04]

Her little heart cried[00:01:08]

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

Oh dale ho[00:01:17]

Dale eh[00:01:19]

Oh[00:01:22]

De ho le eh[00:01:23]

A de ho le he ho[00:01:26]

Le he ho[00:01:28]

Le le[00:01:29]

Little then did I think[00:01:32]

That sometimes I'd repay[00:01:34]

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

But as years passed along[00:01:44]

I grew lonely each day[00:01:46]

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

So I wrote to my darling[00:01:56]

And said I was wrong[00:01:58]

I'll return dear if you only wed[00:02:01]

But soon came a letter my flower had died[00:02:07]

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

Your sweetheart is peacefully[00:02:19]

Sleeping tonight[00:02:23]

In a grave where the white violets grow[00:02:25]

And enclosed[00:02:31]

There a curl a last token of love[00:02:33]

And a note from your galveston rose[00:02:37]

I was innocent dear[00:02:43]

Though you left me alone[00:02:46]

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

And the lock that enclosed[00:02:55]

Is a curl from your rose[00:02:58]

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