The New San Antonio Rose * Something To Shoot

The New San Antonio Rose
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 beneath the Alamo
Enchantment strange of the blue up above
A moonlit path that only she would know
Still hear 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.

Broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path by the Alamo
And Rose, my rose of San Antone.
