| lyric | 1. There's a yellow rose in Texas
that I am goin’ to see,
no other fellow loves her,
nobody, only me.
She cried so when I left her,
it like to broke my heart
and if I ever find her,
we nevermore will part.
Ref.: She’s the sweetest rose of color this fellow ever knew,
her eyes are bright as diamons, they sparkle like the dew.
You may talk about your dearest May, and sing of Rose Lee
but the yello rose of Texas beats the belles of Tennessee.
2.Where the Rio Grande is flowing
and the starry like are bright,
she walks along the river,
in the quiet summer night.
She thinks, if I remember,
when we parted ong ago,
I promised to come back again,
and not to leave her so.
3. Oh, now I’m goin’ to find her,
for my heart is full of woe,
and we’ll sing the song together,
that we sang so long ago.
We’ll play the banjo gaily
and we’ll sing the songs of yore
and the Yellow Rose of Texas
shall be mine forevermore. |
