The Yellow Rose Of Texas Gene Autry

[Verse 1]
There's a yellow rose in Texas I'm going back to see
No other fella knows her, nobody else but me
She cried so when I left her it led to broke her heart
And if we ever meet again, we nevermore shall part

[Chorus]
She's the sweetest rose of color this fellow ever knew
Her eyes are light as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your dearest maids and sing of Rosalee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas beats the Belles of Tennessee

[Verse 3]
Where the Rio Grande is flowing and the stars are shining bright
We walked along the river on a quiet summer night
She said, "If you remember, we parted long ago"
I promised to come back again and not to leave her so

[Chorus]
She's the sweetest rose of color this fellow ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your dearest maids and sing of Rosalee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas beats the Belles of Tennessee

[Verse 3]
Oh, I'm going back to find her for my heart is full of woe
We'll sing the songs together we sang so long ago
I'll pick the banjo gaily and sing the songs of yore
And the Yellow Rose of Texas shall be mine forevermore
