Yellow Rose of Texas (feat. Willie Nelson)

There's a yellow rose in Texas that I am goin' there 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 Rosa Lee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me

Where the Rio Grande is flowin', and starry skies shine bright

She walks along the river on the quiet summer night

I know that she remembers when we parted long ago

I promised to return 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 Rosa Lee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me

There's a yellow rose in Texas that I am goin' there 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 Rosa Lee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me
