Yellow Rose of Texas

There's a yellow rose in Texas
I'm goin' back to see
No other cowboy loves her
Half as much as me

She cried so when I left her
It almost broke my heart
And if we ever meet again
We'll never drift apart

She's the sweetest rose of color
That Texas ever knew
Her eyes are like the diamonds
They sparkle like the dew
You can talk about your Clementine
And dream of Rosalie
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Is the only girl for me
