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 |
