REBA MCENTIRE - San Antonio Rose lyrics

rate me

(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.
