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 meetin' you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky-why? She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy 'Cause she walks down 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 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 meetin' you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky-why? Delta Daw-awn, 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 meetin' you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky-why? 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 meetin' you here today? To take you to his mansion in the sky-why 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 meetin' you here today? To take you to his mansion in the sky-why Delta-a Dawn, what's that flower you have on? Could it be a faded rose from days gone by? (fade)
