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

Back in those days a song was released on the East coast and worked it’s way by radio to the west coast.

I first heard GALVESTON in Little Rock and it was on every station all the time.
Then I got sent to California and it was just breaking there and heard it for weeks on every station there.
Then I got sent to Hawaii and guess what song was just getting popular and was on every station?

Then Se Asia and guess what song was on all the AFRTS radio stations.

I hate that song!
