2nd south carolina string band - the yellow rose of texas lyrics

Loading...

there’s a yellow rose of texas
that i am gonna 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 nevermore will part

she’s the sweetest rose of colour
this soldier ever knew
her eyes are bright as diamonds
they sparkle like the dew
you may talk about your dеarest mae
and sing of rosa lee
but the yеllow 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
she’s the sweetest rose of colour
this soldier ever knew
her eyes are bright as diamonds
and they sparkle like the dew
you may talk about your dearest mae
and sing of rosa lee
but the yellow rose of texas
beats the belles of tennessee

well now i’m headed southward
and my heart is sinking low
i’m going back to georgia
to find my uncle joe
you may talk about your beauregard
and speak of bobby lee
but the gallant hood of texas
he played h+ll in tennessee

she’s the sweetest rose of colour
this soldier ever knew
her eyes are bright as diamonds
and they sparkle like the dew
you may talk about your dearest mae
and sing of rosa lee
but the yellow rose of texas
beats the belles of tennessee
oh, now i’m gonna find her
for my heart is full of woe
we’ll sing this 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 forevermore

she’s the sweetest rose of colour
this soldier ever knew
her eyes are bright as diamonds
and they sparkle like the dew
you may talk about your dearest mae
and sing of rosa lee
but the yellow rose of texas
beats the belles of tennessee
but the yellow rose of texas
beats the belles of tennessee
