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 down 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
Delta Dawn

To take you to his mansion
in the sky
To take you to his mansion
