THERE'S A YELLOW ROSE
IN TEXAS
THAT I AM GONNA SEE
NOBODY ELSE
COULD MISS HER
NOT HALF AS MUCH AS ME
SHE CRIED SO
WHEN I LEFT HER
IT LIKED TO
BROKE MY HEART
AND IF I EVER FIND HER
WE NEVERMORE
WILL PART
SHE'S THE SWEETEST
LITTLE ROSEBUD
THAT TEXAS EVER KNEW
HER EYES AS 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
WHERE THE RIO GRANDE
IS FLOWIN'
AND STARRY SKIES
ARE BRIGHT
SHE WALKS ALONG
THE RIVER
IN THE QUIET
SUMMER NIGHT
I KNOW THAT
SHE REMEMBERED
WHEN WE PARTED
LONG AGO
I PROMISED TO RETURN
AND NOT
TO LEAVE HER SO
SHE'S THE SWEETEST
LITTLE ROSEBUD
THAT TEXAS EVER KNEW
HER EYES AS 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
OH NOW
I'M GONNA FIND HER
FOR MY HEART
IS FULL OF WOE
WE'LL DO THE THINGS
TOGETHER
WE DID DO LONG AGO
WE'LL PLAY
THE BANJO GAYLY
SHE'LL LOVE ME
LIKE BEFORE
AND THE YELLOW ROSE
OF TEXAS
SHALL BE MINE
FOREVERMORE
SHE'S THE SWEETEST
LITTLE ROSEBUD
THAT TEXAS EVER KNEW
HER EYES AS 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
