I'll Be Your San Antone Rose - Jerry Jeff Walker

If they’ll play one more love song

And if that Miller Highlife sign stays dim

And I’ll just keep your glass so full of whiskey

I’ll whisper words I wish I’d said to him

'Cause I don’t want to hear those sad story

'Cause we both already know how it goes

Tonight, I’ll be your tall dark stranger

I’ll be your San Antone rose

I’ll ask you to dance all the slow ones

Hold you close and walk 'cross the floor

I’ll gently lay my head on your shoulder

And pretend this never happened before

I don’t want to hear those sad story

'Cause we both already know how it goes

Tonight, I’m gonna be your tall dark stranger

You know, I’ll be your San Antone rose

I wish I could tell you, ‽I love youâ€

(Don't lie to me)

I wish that he weren’t always on my mind

But if wishes were fast trains to Texas

How we’d bide, how we’d ride, how we’d ride

But I don’t want to hear a sad story

We both already know how it goes

But if tonight, I could be my tall dark stranger

(You can be my stranger)

I’ll be your San Antone rose

I’ll be your San Antone rose
