Delta Dawn

In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn

Prettiest woman you ever had laid eyes on

But a man of low degree stood by her side

Promised her hed take her for his bride but he lied

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on

Could it be a faded rose of days gone by

Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today

To take you to his mansion in the sky?

Shes forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby

All the folks around Brownsville say shes crazy

Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand

Looking for a mysterious dark haired man

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on

Could it be a faded rose of days gone by

Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today

To take you to his mansion in the sky?
