When I was a child

Down in South Caroline
Soon's 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 50, I never got
Lonesome or blue
I'd fall asleep in my chair
And dream ihaf I was
Right 1here iusf a-singin'
The whole night 1hrough
When my folks would come
Home 1hey'd be hummin'
A song Mama'd smile and
Say, child don't ya know
There ain't a thing in
This world 10 make ya fall

In love girl like the
San Antonio Stroll
(Instrumental Break)
Well he day finally come
When my Ma ma said, hon'
Ifs 'bouf time you came
Wiih us as well
Well, I had me a time
Yes I danced a he night
'Til 1hey rang ihaf old
Cracked midnight bell
Then the Iighis went
Down low the fiddler

Picked up his bow

And he played somethin'
Stately and slow
And my sister Eileen and

Her husband-fo- be

They held hands

and began to stroll
I've been away for awhile
But if sii brings a smile

When I 1hink of he way
That it goes
Now I'll sing it to you

Just so we both can do
That old San Antonio Stroll
(Instrumental Break)
Now I'll sing it to you

Just so we both can do
That old San Antonio Stroll
