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, 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 |
