Lyrics
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 'er "baby" All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy 'Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand Lookin' 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 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, 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, 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, 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
