Delta Dawn

Delta Dawn

Delta Dawn

　　what's that flower you have on

　　Could it be a faded rose from days gone by

　　And did I hear you say

　　he was a-meeting you here today

　　To take you to his mansion in the sky

　　She's forty-one

　　and her daddy still calls her "baby"

　　All the folks around Brownsville

　　say she's crazy

　　'Cause she walks around town

　　with a suitcase in her hand

　　Looking for

　　a mysterious dark-haired man

　　In her younger days

　　they called her Delta Dawn

　　Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on

　　Then a man of low degree

　　stood by her side

　　And promised her

　　he'd take her for his bride
