Roughneck Blues 1949-1956

If you told me that you loved me I'd feel so proud
If you let me hold you honey I'd holler out loud.
I'll never love another, even if I can.
Oh come to me baby, I'm a one-woman man.

(chorus)
Oh wantcha let me baby just to kind of hang around.
I'll always love ya honey and I'll never let let ya down.
I'll never love another even if I can.
Oh come to me baby, I'm a one-woman man.

I'd climb the highest mountain if it reached up to the sky
To prove that I loved you I would jump off and fly.
I'd even swim the ocean from shore to shore
To prove that I love just a little bit more.

[Repeat chorus twice]

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 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 pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone
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 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 pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone
