Oh you should have seen her Raw and wild as they came Promising wealth without measure If only she would be tamed We broke our backs to charm her Gave her our blood and our bones ’Til we won her gracious favor In a bed among the stones Play the concertina Lay your burden down Remember when days were sweeter And raise a glass to Galena Oh you should have seen her Dressed in her finery Shining bright as any Jewel of the Owyhee We traded our picks for walking canes Forgot wives we left on the farm And stole down tiger alleyways With girls from the line on our arm She made us a name when we staked our claim In her arms we grew up so fast How could we know that the life we loved so Wasn’t meant to last Oh you should have seen her When we’d taken all she could give The bounty we had won from her We thought we’d never outlive A penny curiosity Old bones in a pinewood vale No one to say what she’d meant to be And no one to tell her tale Play the concertina Lay your burden down Remember when days were sweeter And say a prayer for Galena Oh how we loved you, Galena
