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
As I watch the cannons flashing I clean my gun and dream of Galveston

I still see her standing by the water standing there looking out the sea
Is she waiting there for me on the beach where we used to run
Galveston oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying until I dry the tears she's crying
Till I watch your seagulls flying in the sun at Galveston at Galveston

I still see her standing by
