Yellow Rose - Various Artists
Written by:Traditional
It's that yellow rose of Texas
I am going for to see
She loves that way like a kid
She loves but only me
And she cried so when I part her
Then it nearly broke my heart
And I promise to return again
And never from her to part
She's the fairest rose of color
Which are dark is ever knew
Her eyes are shine like diamonds
Such as sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your clementine
And sing of rosa lee
But the charm of rose of Texas
It's a part of energy
And the rio grande is flowin'
And the stars are sparklin' bright
Rather take a quiet at walkin'
In a nicely summer night
When she ask if I remember
As I parted long ago
As I promised to return again
And never from her to go
She's the fairest rose of color
Which is dark is ever knew
Her eyes are shine like diamonds
And that sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your clementine
And sing of rosa lee
But the charm of rose of Texas
It's a part of energy
I'm goin' now to find her
And my heart is full to it's joy
We'll sing sweet songs together
As we use it long ago
And she play the banjo gaily
And she need in days of joy
Oh that yellow rose of Texas
Shall be mine forever more
She's the fairest rose of color
Which is dark is ever knew
Her eyes are shine like diamonds
And they sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your clementine
And sing of rosa lee
But that yellow rose of Texas
It's the part of energy
