San Antonio Stroll Lyrics - Hits - Tanya Tucker

When I was a child down in South Carolin' 

Soon as the Saturday sun went on down. 

My folks 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 old Opry show 

So I never got lonesome or blue 

I'd fall asleep in my chair 

and dream that I was right there 

Just a'singin' the whole night thru.

When my folks would come home 

They'd be hummin' a song, 

Mama'd smile and say child don'tcha 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 hun 

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 crack 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 awhile, 

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 old San Antonio Stroll 

Yes, I'll sing it to you 

Just so we all can do 

That old San Antonio Stroll.
