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
I've traveled down some dusty roads
I've slept out in the rain
But this yellow rose is always here
When I come home again

Chorus:
She knows I've done some hard time
I stumbled and I fell
You just kept my 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
I couldn't see beyond myself
I pain and wounded pride
But now I know the truth is
in the way I feel inside

Chorus
