Island Red
She was a red-headed German girl abandoned by a rich businessman
On the streets of old Galveston
She came over on an ocean liner and no one ever looked any finer
Who walked the streets of old Galveston
Island Red she was a beauty they all said
Island Red she always turned their heads
She called herself Island Red they just called her beautiful
That good-looking woman who walked The Strand
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
She always lived at the finest hotels and as far as anyone could tell
She never once ran out of money
She was full of mystery and one look at her could cause misery
And fill your dreams with a women with hair so red
Island Red she was a beauty they all said
Island Red she always turned their heads
She called herself Island Red they just called her beautiful
That good-looking woman who walked The Strand
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
On the streets of old Galveston
She came over on an ocean liner and no one ever looked any finer
Who walked the streets of old Galveston
Island Red she was a beauty they all said
Island Red she always turned their heads
She called herself Island Red they just called her beautiful
That good-looking woman who walked The Strand
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
She always lived at the finest hotels and as far as anyone could tell
She never once ran out of money
She was full of mystery and one look at her could cause misery
And fill your dreams with a women with hair so red
Island Red she was a beauty they all said
Island Red she always turned their heads
She called herself Island Red they just called her beautiful
That good-looking woman who walked The Strand
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
All the women said she was shameless
All the men said she was famous
But everyone stopped and watched as she walked by
