She was forty-one
And her Daddy
Still called her Baby
Everyone in Brownsville
Thinks she's crazy
Cause she walks
To the station
With a suitcase in her hand
And she's looking for
A mysterious dark-haired
man
In her younger day
They called her Delta Dawn
Prettiest woman
You ever laid eyes on
But a man of low degree
Stood by her side
And he promised he would
Take her for his bride
Delta Dawn
What's that flower
You have on
Could it be a faded rose
From days gone by
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 got on
Could it be a faded rose
From days gone by
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 got on
Could it be a faded rose
From days gone by
Did I hear you say he was
Meeting you right here today
He's gonna take you
To his mansion in the sky
Delta Dawn oh oh oh
What is that flower
That you've got on
Could it be could it be
Just a just faded rose
Come on a Lord
Days gone by
Well did I hear you say
That he was gonna meet you
Right here right here today
He's gonna take you
To his mansion in the sky
To take you to his
