That's exactly how it's supposed to work "out of the box", although I
can't verify the use of mouse button #2, as I've always and only used
C-y (I learned Emacs back before mice had been invented). However, the
C-y has to be one of the first things that you do after bringing the
focus back to Emacs.
Perhaps you have something in your .emacs file that is interfering with
this default behavior?
