Daughters of Texas lyrics

Nobody else could miss her, Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find her, We nevermore will part

She's the sweetest little rosebud That Texas ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds, They sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your Clementine, And sing of Rosalee
But the yellow rose of Texas Is the only girl for me

When the Rio Grande is flowing, The starry skies are bright
She walks along the river In the quiet summer night
I know that she remembers, When we parted long ago
I promise to return again, And not to leave her so

Oh now I'm going to find her, For my heart is full of woe
And we'll sing the songs together, That we sung so long ago
We'll play the bango gaily, And we'll sing the songs of yore
And the yellow rose of Texas Shall be mine forevermore

Nobody else could miss her, Not half as much as me
She cried so when I left her It like to broke my heart
