Yellow Rose of Texas

There's a yellow rose in Texas, that I am going to see,
Nobody else could miss her, not half as much as me.
She cried so when I left her, it like 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 are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew;
You may talk about your Clementine, and sing of Rosalee,
But the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me.

When the Rio Grande is flowing, the starry skies are bright,
She walks along the river in the quiet summer night:
I know that she remembers, when we parted long ago,
I promise to return again, and not to leave her so.

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew,
Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew;
You may talk about your Clementine, and sing of Rosalee,
But the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me.

Oh now I'm going to find her, for my heart is full of woe,
And we'll sing the songs together, that we sung so long ago
We'll play the bango gaily, and we'll sing the songs of yore,
And the yellow rose of Texas shall be mine forevermore.

She's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knew,
Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew;
You may talk about your Clementine, and sing of Rosalee,
But the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me.

This version is shorter with 5 stanzas

There’s a yellow rose in Texas,
I’m going there to see.
No other soldier knows her,
Nobody, only me.
She cried so when I left her,
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part

[Chorus]

She’s the sweetest rose of color
This soldier ever knew;
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They sparkle like the dew.
You may talk about your dearest May
And sing of Rosa Lee,
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Beats the belles of Tennessee.

Where the Rio Grande is flowing,
And the starry 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 to come back again
And ne’er to leave her so.

Now I’m going back to find her,
For my heart is full of woe.
We’ll sing the song together
We sang so long ago;
I’ll play the banjo gaily,
We’ll sing the songs of yore;
And the Yellow Rose of Texas
Will be mine forevermore!

And now I’m going southward,
For my heart is full of woe.
I’m going back to Georgia,
To see my Uncle Joe.
You may talk about your Beauregard
And sing of Bobby Lee,
But the Gallant Hood of Texas
He raised Hell in Tennessee.
