Delta Dawn

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 a-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 around Brownsville
　　say she's crazy
　　'Cause she walks around town
　　with a 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 promised her
　　he'd take her for his bride
