The Yellow Rose of Texas (исполнитель: Songs For Kids)
Original version, from the MS in the University of Texas archives There's a yellow rose in Texas, that I am going to see, No other darky knows her, no darky only me She cryed so when I left her it like to broke my heart, And if I ever find her, we nevermore will part. [bad word] She's the sweetest rose of color this darky ever knew, Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew; You may talk about your Dearest May, and sing of Rosa Lee, 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 quite [sic] summer night: She thinks if I remember, when we parted long ago, I promised [bad word] back again, and not to leave her so. [Repeat [bad word] Oh now I'm going to find her, for my heart is full of woe, And we'll sing the songs togeather [sic], 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. [bad word]
