One of very few songs from that era I’m familiar with...but wasn’t it “I aim my gun?”
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
While I watch the cannon flashing
I clean my gun
And I dream of Galveston
I still see her standin’ by the water
Standin’ there lookin’ out to sea
And is she waiting there oh 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
