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
