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?
In her younger days they
called her Delta Dawn
prettiest woman you

Then a man of low degree

She's forty one and her
daddy still calls her baby
and all the folks around
Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks around
town with a suitcase in
her hand looking for a
mysterious dark haired man
