《The Galveston Rose》歌词

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

[00:00:01] Written by：Snow

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

[00:00:08] I wandered one day

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

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

[00:00:21] So rare

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:56] Accused her one day

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

[00:01:02] Should know

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

[00:01:08] Her little heart cried

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

[00:01:17] Oh dale ho

[00:01:19] Dale eh

[00:01:22] Oh

[00:01:23] De ho le eh

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

[00:01:28] Le he ho

[00:01:29] Le le

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:19] Your sweetheart is peacefully

[00:02:23] Sleeping tonight

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

[00:02:31] And enclosed

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

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

[00:02:43] I was innocent dear

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

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

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

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

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