Album: The Very Best Since 1970

San Antonio Rose

Asleep at the wheel's version
uses a boggie woggie beat and
ray benson changed some simple
words to ones he would say normaly.
he also repeted the second verse for
the chours.

(Insturmental of complete song used for intro)

Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I live with a memory
Beneath the stars all alone
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
A moonlit path that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendour
Know only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender
Like petals falling apart
Speak once again of my love, my own
Oohaoh Broken dreams, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
in that moonlit path beside the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone

(instrumental of song )

Moon in all your splendour
Know only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender
Like petals falling apart
Speak once again of my love, my own
Oohaoh Broken dreams, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
in that moonlit path beside the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone


(instrumental of song to finish)
 


Rose Of San Antone
by bob wills

Deep within my heart, lies a melody
a song of old San Antone.
Where in dreams I live with a memory
beneath the stars all alone.
It was there I found, beside the Alamo
enchantment strange as the blue up above
a moonlit pass that only she would know.
Still hears my broken song of love

Moon in all your splendor
Know only my heart
Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender
Like petals fallin' apart
Speak once again of my love, my own
Broken song, empty words I know
That live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path beside the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone.
