Roy Rogers - Yellow Rose Of Texas Lyrics
I'm goin' there to seeNo other feller knows herNobody, only me.She cried so when I left herIt like to broke my heartAnd if we ever meet againWe never more will part.She's the sweetest rose of colorA cowboy ever knewHer eyes are bright as diamondsThey sparkle like the dew.You may talk about your dearest MayAnd sing of Rosa LeeBut the Yellow Rose of TexasBeats the belles of Tennessee.Where the Rio Grande is flowin'And the stars are shinin' bright,We walked along the riverOn a bright summer night,She said, "If you remember,We parted long ago,You promised to come back again,And never let me go."She's the sweetest rose of colorA cowboy ever knewHer eyes are bright as diamondsThey sparkle like the dew.You may talk about your dearest MayAnd sing of Rosa LeeBut the Yellow Rose of TexasBeats the belles of Tennessee.InstrumentalI'm goin' back to find her,My heart is full of woe,We'll sing the songs togetherWe sang so long ago,I'll fix the banjo gaylyAnd sing of long ago,And the Yellow Rose of Texas,Is to be mine forevermore.She's the sweetest rose of colorA cowboy ever knewHer eyes are bright as diamondsThey sparkle like the dew.You may talk about your dearest MayAnd sing of Rosa LeeBut the Yellow Rose of TexasBeats the belles of Tennessee.
