Yellow Rose |
The Yellow Rose of Texas |
Came down by the Eildon Tree |
As her hair shone in the morning sun |
Her eyes were wild and free |
And I knew I would go with her |
'cos she put a spell on me |
She told me she would take me |
Where the Johnson folk still trade |
She carried gold and silver |
And the finest French brocade |
I told her I had nothing |
Just my shoes and my old hat |
She said «Watch out where you’re walkin' tonight |
'cos I’ve seen 'em killed for much less than that» |
And her hair was of the grass green silk |
Her mantle of the velvet fine |
And hung upon her horse’s mane |
Were sixty silver bells and nine |
We came upon a doctor |
Who plied anything you like |
She said «Do you wanna get high?» |
I said «Well, I guess, alright |
If you’re having one, I’m having one» |
And then we had three |
By the time she left in the morning |
There was nothing left of me |
