about

Western swing with Greg on vocals, Grahame on banjo, Al - trumpet and Adam on washboard. Written by Bob Wills (1938 & 40).

lyrics

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

Greg Poppleton Sydney, Australia

I saw Louis Armstrong on TV when I was 3 and have been hooked on 1920s-1930s jazz and swing ever since. I sing songs with some musician characters
