(Words & music by Wise - Starr / Lance - Sinclair)
  Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
  Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
  Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
  I'll remember her forever because I love her so
    There are so many roses that bloom along the way
  But my heart's in Amarillo and that's where it will stay
  With the yellow rose of Texas so I'd better get there fast
  'Cause I know I was her first love and I want to be her last
    Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
  Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
  Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
  I'll remember her forever because I love her so
    The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
  The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
  Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
  The eyes of Texas are upon you 'till Gabriel blows his horn
    The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
  The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
  Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
  The eyes of Texas are upon you 'till Gabriel blows his horn
    The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
  The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
  Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
  The eyes of Texas are upon you 'till Gabriel blows his horn
