There's a yellow rose in Texas that I'm gonna seeNobody else could miss her, not half as much as meShe cried, so when I left her it'd like to broke my heartAnd if I'd ever find her, we never more will partShe's the sweetest little rosebud that Texas ever knewHer eyes are bright as diamonds; they sparkle like the dewYou may talk about, Clementine, and sing of RosaleeBut the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for meWhere the Rio Grande is flowing and the skies are brightShe walks along the river in the quiet summer nightI know that she remembers when we parted long agoI promised that I'll return and not to leave her soShe's the sweetest little rosebudNow I'm going back to find her, for my heart is full of vowWe'll do the things together we did so long agoWe'll play the banjo gaily; she'll love me like beforeAnd the yellow rose of Texas shall be mine for ever moreShe's the sweetest little rosebud Aus Songtexte Mania
