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
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 ameeting you here today
   To take you to his mansion in the sky
   She' s fortyone
   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 darkhaired 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
