(words & music: bob wills)
… remember alone in my heart
Call back my love of san antonio
Just pretend like tales fall apart
Think once again of my love, my own
A few words not known …. my heart i belong…
I don’t know… of my rose in san antonio
Growing all this tender lala heart
Call back my love in san antonio
It’s so sweet and tender like peddles fall apart….
Rose in san antonio… know my rose in san antonio
(note: sorry… but i couldn’t make more of it)
(bob wills)
Oh you and all your splendor
It knows only me heart
Call back my rose
Rose of san antone
Oh lips so sweet and tender
Just like petals fallin’ apart
Speak once again of my love
My ol’ broken songs
Empty words i know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path
Oh beside the alamo
And rose my rose of san antone
Oh my rose my rose of san antone
Take a bow boys!
You know a lot of people ask me all the time,
Who were my musical influences.
Well i guess it’s just kinda natural,
Since i was raised in oklahoma,
That one of my musical influences was bob wills music.
When i was in college we used to
Sneak down to the oklahoma and texas border and go to dances.
And it didn’t get any better than dancing to bob wills music.
But you know there was another guy from oklahoma.
I had every album he ever put out.
My older brother
Pake and my little sister susie and me, we sang every song he did
Cause merle haggard was a great influence on all of us.
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the spirit album, and has also been released on the changes album.
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 splendour
Hear 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
Broken song, empty words i know
Still live in my heart
For the moonlit pass by the alamo
And rose, my rose of san antone
