There's a yellow Rose in Texas
That I am gonna see
No other Cowboy knows her
No other, only me
She cried so when I left her
It almost broke my Heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
She's the sweetest little Rosebud
This Cowboy 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
( Instrumental )
Where the Rio Grande is flowing
And the starry Skies are bright
She walked along the River
In the quiet Summer Night
She said I must remember
When we parted long ago
To promise to come back again
And never leave her so
She's the sweetest little Rosebud
This Cowboy 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
( Instrumental )
Oh now I'm going to find her
For my Heart is full of Woe
We'll do the things together
That we did so long ago
We'll play the Banjo gaily
And she'll love me like before
Then the Yellow Rose of Texas
Shall be mine for ever more
She's the sweetest little Rosebud
This Cowboy 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
