My Home State |
|
|
|
THE YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS |
|
|
|
There's a yellow rose in Texas |
|
|
|
That I am going to see. |
|
|
|
No other soldier knows her -- . |
|
|
|
No soldier, only me.. |
|
|
|
She cried so when I left her, . |
|
|
|
It like to broke my heart,. |
|
|
|
And if I ever find her,. |
|
|
|
We never more shall 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.. |
|
|
|
She thinks, if I remember, . |
|
|
|
When we parted long ago,. |
|
|
|
I promised to come back again . |
|
|
|
And not to leave her so. |
|
|
|
CHORUS . |
|
|
|
For my heart is full of woe,. |
|
|
|
Oh, now I'm going to find her,. |
|
|
|
And we'll sing the song together . |
|
|
|
That we sang so long ago.. |
|
|
|
We'll play the banjo gaily, . |
|
|
|
And we'll sing the songs of yore,. |
|
|
|
And the Yellow Rose of Texas . |
|
|
|
Shall be mine forever more.. |
|
|
|
CHORUS. |
|
|
|
Oh, now I'm headed southward,. |
|
|
|
For my heart is full of woe.. |
|
|
|
I'm going back to Georgia . |
|
|
|
To find my Uncle Joe.. |
|
|
|
You may talk about your Beauregard . |
|
|
|
And sing of Bobby Lee,. |
|
|
|
But the gallant Hood of Texas, . |
|
|
|
He played hell in Tennessee!. |
|
|
|
