Yellow Rose of Texas

Yellow Rose Of Texas - Ernest Tubb

There's a yellow rose in Texas

That I'm gonna see

Nobody else could miss her

Not half as much as me

She cried so when I left her

It'd like to broke my heart

And if I'd ever find her

We never more will part

She's the sweetest little resebud

That Texas ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds

They sparkle like the dew

Gimme talk about you Clementine

And sing of Resalee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas

Is the only girl for me

Where the Rio Grande is flowing

And the skies are bright

She walks along the river

In the quiet summer night

I know that she remembers

When we parted long ago

I promised that I'll return

And not to leave her so

She's the sweetest little resebud

That Texas ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds

They sparkle like the dew

Gimme talk about you Clementine

And sing of Resalee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas

Is the only girl for me

Now I'm going back to find her

For my heart is full of vow

We'll do the things together

We did so long ago

We'll play the banjo gaily

She'll love me like before

And the Yellow Rose of Texas

Shall be mine for ever more

She's the sweetest little resebud

That Texas ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds

They sparkle like the dew

Gimme talk about you Clementine

And sing of Resalee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas

Is the only girl for me
