Some really gorgeous historic buildings
on Galveston Island .. hope they’re not
all lost.

Well- this one is a dang shame- and now I’ll be humming ZZ Top all afternoon:

http://www.balineseroom.net/returnofBalinese.htm

“Deep in the South of Texas
not so long ago,
there on a crowded island
in the Gulf of Mexico

it didn’t take too much money,
man, but it sure was nice.
You could dance all night if you felt all right,
drinking whiskey and throwing dice.

And everybody knows
it was hard to leave.
And everybody knows
it was down at the Balinese.”

“Balinese” – ZZ Top – Fandango - 1975
