A5 B5
When I was a child down in South Caroline
D5 E5 A5 E5
Soon's the Saturday sun went on down
A5 B5
My folks and sister would go and leave me home all alone
D5 E5 A5
Going to that big square dance in town
F#5 C#5
Well my old radio would play that old opry show
B5 E5 A5
So I never got lonesome or blue
F#5 C#5
I'd fall asleep in my chair and dream that I was right there
B5 B5 E5
Just singing the whole night through
A5
When my folks would come home
B5
They'd be humming a song
D5 E5 F#5
Mama'd smile and say, "Child, don't you know,
D5
there ain't a thing in this world to make you
A5 F#5 B5 E5 A5 E5
fall in love girl, like the San Antonio Stroll"
Same as intro, except twice | ---

A5 B5
Well the day finally come when my mama said, hun
D5 E5 A5 E5
It's 'bout time you came with us as well
A5 B5
Well I had me a time, yes I danced all the night
D5 E5 A5
Til they rang that ol' crack-midnight bell
F#5
Then the lights went down low
C#5
The fiddler picked up his bow
B5 E5 A5
And he played something steady and slow
F#5 C#5
And my sister Irene and her husband to be
B5 B5 E5
They held hands and began to stroll
A5 E5
I've been away for a while, but it still brings a smile
D5 E5 F#5
When I think of the way that it goes
D5 A5 F#5
Now I'll sing it to you just so we both can do
B5 E5 A5 E5
That old San Antonio Stroll
