Yellow Rose Of Texas

There's a yellow rose in Texas

I'm going home to see

Though other men have held her

Her heart belongs to me

You've traveled down some dusty roads

Slept out in the rain

But this yellow rose is always here

When you come home again

She knows I've done some hard time

You stumbled then you fell

I just kept your pride from dying

You saved my soul from hell

She's the diamond of the desert

She's the golden flower of spring

She's the yellow rose of Texas

She can make a man a king

There's a yellow rose in Texas

She knows the dues I've paid

And I'm going home to tell her

I wish I'd never strayed

You couldn't see beyond yourself

Your pain and wounded pride

But now you know the truth is

In the way you feel in side

She knows I've done some hard time

You stumbled then you fell

I just kept your pride from dying

And you saved my soul from hell

She's the diamond of the desert

She's the golden flower of spring

She's the yellow rose of Texas

She can make a man a king

Yes the yellow rose of Texas can

She can make a man a king
