Delta Dawn
Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on?
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
And did I hear you say he was a-meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky-eye?
Shes forty-one and her daddy still calls er 'baby'
All the folks round Brownsville say shes 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 hed take her for his bride
