John Mccutcheon - Yellow Rose Of Texas lyrics

She's the Yellow Rose of Texas that I am going to see There ain't no other soldier that loves her quite like me When I get back to Austin how happy I will be With the Yellow Rose of Texas sittin' on my knee She's the sweetest little rose bud this soldier ever knew With eyes as bright as diamonds and they sparkled like the dew When I get back to Austin how happy I will be With the Yellow Rose of Texas sittin' on my knee She cried so when I left her it like to broke my heart And if I ever find her we never more will part When I get back to Austin how happy I will be With the Yellow Rose of Texas sittin' on my knee
