Delta Dawn

Lyrics

[Chorus] 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 meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky [Verse 1] She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby All the folks round Brownsville still says she's crazy 'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand Looking for a mysterious dark haired man [Verse 2] 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 hе promised her he'd takе her for his bride [Chorus] 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 meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky 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 meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky 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 meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky 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 meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky Delta Dawn, what's that flower
