San Antonio Stroll

San Antonio Stroll By: Tanya Tucker key of Intro notes for Mandolin: , Intro with guitar: one strum each of first four chords} 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 Going 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 singing the whole night through When my folks would come home They'd be humming a song Mama'd smile and say, "Child, don't you know, there ain't a thing in this world to make you fall in love girl, like the San Antonio Stroll" Same as intro, except twice--- Well the day finally come when my mama said, hun It's 'bout time you came with us as well Well I had me a time, yes I danced all the night Til they rang that ol' crack-midnight bell Then the lights went down low The fiddler picked up his bow And he played something steady and slow And my sister Irene and her husband to be They held hands and began to stroll I've been away for a while, 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 (instrumental--exactly like intro, except twice. Also, for the mandolin, instead of ending on the note ) (chords for instrumental are: ) Yes I'll sing it to you just so we all can do That old San Antonio Stroll Outro: Same as intro. Chords:
