W. Original Motion Picture movie - Yellow Rose Of Texas lyrics

rate me

There's a yellow rose in Texas that I am gonna see<br>

Nobody else could miss her, not half as much as me<br>

She cried so when I left her, it like to broke my heart<br>

And if I ever find her we never more will part<br>

<br>

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew<br>

Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew<br>

You may talk about your Clementine and sing of Rosa Lee<br>

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me<br>

<br>

Instrumental<br>

<br>

Where the Rio Grande is flowin', and starry skies are bright<br>

She walks along the river in the quiets of her night<br>

I know that she remembers when we parted long ago<br>

I promised to return and not to leave her so<br>

<br>

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew<br>

Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew<br>

You may talk about your Clementine and sing of Rosa Lee<br>

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me<br>

<br>

Instrumental<br>

<br>

Oh, now I'm gonna find her, for my heart is full of woe<br>

We'll do the things together we did so long ago<br>

We'll play the banjo gaily, she'll love me like before<br>

And the Yellow Rose of Texas shall be mine forevermore<br>

<br>

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew<br>

Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew<br>

You may talk about your Clementine and sing of Rosa Lee<br>

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me<br>
