Yellow Rose Of Texas
She's the sweetest baby rosebud
That Texas ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your Clementine
And sing of Rosa Lee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Is the only girl for me
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
When the Rio Grande is flowing
The starry skies are bright
She walks along the river
In a quiet summer night
I know that she remembers
When we're parted long ago
I've promised to return again
But not to leave her so
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more shall part
Oh, now I'm going to find her
For my heart is full of woe
And we'll sing the songs together
That we sung long ago
We'll play the guitar daily
And we'll sing the songs of yore
And the Yellow Rose of Texas
Shall be mine forevermore
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
That Texas ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your Clementine
And sing of Rosa Lee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Is the only girl for me
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
When the Rio Grande is flowing
The starry skies are bright
She walks along the river
In a quiet summer night
I know that she remembers
When we're parted long ago
I've promised to return again
But not to leave her so
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more shall part
Oh, now I'm going to find her
For my heart is full of woe
And we'll sing the songs together
That we sung long ago
We'll play the guitar daily
And we'll sing the songs of yore
And the Yellow Rose of Texas
Shall be mine forevermore
There's a yellow rose in Texas
That I am going to see
Nobody else could miss her
Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
