[00:00.00]Yellow Rose of Texas (Album Version) - Hoyt Axton
[00:05.12]Written by:J.H. Hewett
[00:10.25]There's a yellow rose in Texas
[00:13.71]That I am going to see
[00:16.86]No other soldier knows her
[00:20.21]No soldier only me
[00:23.61]She cried so when I left her
[00:26.97]It like to broke my heart
[00:30.16]And if I ever find her
[00:33.35]We never more will part
[00:36.48]She's the sweetest rose of colour
[00:39.76]This soldier ever knew
[00:43.11]Her eyes are bright as diamonds
[00:46.24]They sparkle like the dew
[00:49.53]You may talk about your dearest May
[00:53.24]Sing of Rosalee
[00:56.10]But the yellow rose of Texas is the only one for me
[01:04.72]Oh now I'm going to find her
[01:07.61]For my heart is full of woe
[01:10.76]And we'll sing the songs together
[01:13.98]That we sung so long ago
[01:17.32]We'll play the banjo gaily
[01:20.42]And we'll sing the songs of yore
[01:23.69]And the yellow rose of Texas shall be mine for evermore
[01:32.17]Now I'm going southward for my heart is full of woe
[01:38.53]I'm going back to Georgia to find my uncle Joe
[01:44.88]You may talk about your Beauregard
[01:48.51]Sing of General Lee
[01:51.35]But the gallant hood of Texas played hell in Tennessee
[01:57.96]But the gallant hood of Texas played hell in Tennessee
