There's a yellow rose in Texas
I'm going back to see
No other fellow loves her as half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It almost broke my heart
And if we ever meet again
We never more shall part
She's the sweetest little rosebud
That Texas ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They sparkle like the dew
You can talk about your Clementine and dream of Rosalie
But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me
Buffalo Gals
Chorus:
Buffalo gals, won't you come out tonight
The Yellow Rose of Texas
Come out tonight, come out tonight?
Buffalo gals, won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon?
As I was strollin' down the street
Down the street, down the street
A pretty little gal I chanced to meet
Oh, she was sweet to me!
Chorus
I'd like to make this gal my wife
Gal my wife, gal my wife
I'd make her happy all her life
If she would marry me!
Chorus
I'm going back to see
No other fellow loves her as half as much as me
She cried so when I left her
It almost broke my heart
And if we ever meet again
We never more shall part
She's the sweetest little rosebud

Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They sparkle like the dew
You can talk about your Clementine and dream of Rosalie
But the Yellow Rose of Texas is the only girl for me
Buffalo Gals
Chorus:
Buffalo gals, won't you come out tonight
The Yellow Rose of Texas
Come out tonight, come out tonight?
Buffalo gals, won't you come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon?
As I was strollin' down the street
Down the street, down the street
A pretty little gal I chanced to meet
Oh, she was sweet to me!
Chorus
I'd like to make this gal my wife
Gal my wife, gal my wife
I'd make her happy all her life
If she would marry me!
