[00:00.414] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[00:05.714] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
[00:12.365] And did I hear you say
[00:15.18] he was a-meeting you here today
[00:18.670] To take you to his mansion in the sky
[00:24.470] She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her "baby"
[00:30.976] All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy
[00:36.733] 'Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
[00:43.252] Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man
[00:49.23] In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn
[00:55.584] Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on
[01:01.293] Then a man of low degree stood by her side
[01:07.749] Promised her he'd take her for his bride
[01:13.909] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[01:19.291] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
[01:25.799] And did I hear you say he was a-meetin'you here today
[01:32.58] To take you to his mansion in the sky
[01:38.324] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[01:43.632] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
[01:50.289] And did I hear you say he was a-meetin'you here today
[01:56.653] To take you to his mansion in the sky
[02:02.816] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[02:08.222] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
[02:14.523] And did I hear you say he was a-meetin'you here today
[02:20.842] To take you to his mansion in the sky
[02:26.907] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[02:32.124] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
[02:38.528] And did I hear you say he was a-meetin'you here today
[02:44.739] To take you to his mansion in the sky
[02:50.793] Delta Dawn,what's that flower you have on
[02:56.95] Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
