Lyrics:
in Texas to Galveston and
then on farther by boat. And he left the boat someplace on the east coast
and continued on to New York by train. But by
Galveston
The island paradise down by the bay
Galveston
So pack your bags and book your flights today
The island awaits
The island awaits
Nothing like this way out in west Texas
Galveston Bay is a whole other world
My wife's in her room getting over her sunburn
How would Louis Lamore
a soldier
Got 'em hopping over walls and climbing fences
Some of 'em John Travolta, stayin' alive by inches
(Hello darkness, my old friend)
Cops are
I gathered you up in a thousand days
From 17 till old and grey
Throwing shells on the Galveston bay
Your crying eyes and your heart full of grace
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her
They might like to rock 'n roll in Dallas
Or disco down on Galveston Bay
But when God made them West Texas cowboys
He gave them the Pecos Promenade
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her
a ravel of a scent
Not enough to go by
But just reminiscent
Ride the old Dog is steady
It'll get you there but slow
With
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her
and a long lean ride
I got to make it down to Galveston by Saturday night, now
Well I'm a little down under, but I'm feeling O.K.
Got a little lost along
They might like to rock 'n roll in Dallas
Or disco down on Galveston Bay
But when God made those West Texas cowboys
He gave them the Pecos Promenade
of the man in black
No long white cadillac
No woman standin' by her man
In the place where it all began
Hey good lookin', hey momma tried
Hey gambler, hey
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
Oh, Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her
Mississippi, they want me in Old Cheyenne
Wherever you may look tonight, you will see this wanted man
I might be in Colorado or Georgia by the sea
Working

My first hangout when I moved to Galveston was the Old Quarter Cafe.
It's the best bar ever, except they don't have liquor, food, or customers.
may look tonight,
You will see this wanted man
I might be in Colorado or Georgia by the sea,
Working for some man who may not know at all who I might
Now maybe usually, there's no price I won't pay
But today was very different than any other day
When the cops tracked me down by Galveston Bay
Just
I don't eat jelly but my mind was just in a jam
I Lost a lot of songs on the strip of Galveston
All my songs on a red iPhone XR is where I was housing
