Waylon Jennings & Jessi Colter - The 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 You've 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 sould 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 You saved my sould 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 make a man a king
