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

She's forty-one

And her daddy still calls her baby

All the folks round Brownsville say she's crazy

'Cause she walks downtown

With her 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 he promised her he'd take her for his bride

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
