Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea winds blowin'   I still see her dark eyes glowin'   She was 21 when I left Galveston      Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea waves crashing   While I watch the cannons flashing   I clean my gun and dream of Galveston      I 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 run      Galveston, 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
