Galveston
Janis Ian
Galveston
I'm so afraid to die
When the people all around me
Can't remember where they found me
And I'm telling you
I know it's a lie
All of the people smile at me
All of the people
Sing you a song
Guaranteed to bring tears to your eyes
Never been one for hanging around
With the same old crowd
I'll sing you my songs
Kid, they're all I can do
They're all that's allowed
Galveston
I'm so ashamed to die
When the pеople who surround me
Keep on thinking that they'vе found me
And I'm telling you
I think I know why
All of the people cheer for me
All of the people
Ring in the New Year
Ring out the old year misery
Never been one for hanging around
With the same old crowd
I'll sing you my songs
Kid, they're all I can do
They're all that's allowed
