New song for the boys and girls in a rotten war.
Galveston Lyrics

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

2. when we moved from panama.....
....back to texas in the early 70's, i remember my sister crying in the car when that song came on the radio because she missed home(we were from the houston area). glen campbell is a guilty pleasure. there is a good biography out about him..."rhinestone cowboy". his life and his image are on differing sides of the rainbow. decent read.
