Tanya Tucker - San antonio stroll - single version lyrics

When I was a child Down in south Caroline Soon's the Saturday sun went on down My folk's and sister would go And leave me home all alone Goin' to that big square dance in town Well my old radio Would play that ol' Opry show So I never got lonesome or blue I'd fall asleep in my chair And dream that I was right there Just singing the whole night through When my folks would come home They'd be humming a song Mamma'd smile and say, "Child don't you know There ain't a thing in this world To make you fall in love girl Like the San Antonio stroll" Well the day finally come When my momma said, "Hon' It's 'bout time you came with us as well" Well, I had me a time Yes, I danced all night Till they rang that old cracked midnight bell Then the lights went down low The fiddler picked up his bow And he played something stately and slow And my sister Eileen and her husband to be They held hands and began to stroll I've been away for a while But it still brings a smile When I think of the way that it goes Now I'll sing it to you Just so we both can do That ol' San Antonio stroll Now I'll sing it to you Just so well all can do That ol' San Antonio stroll
