Tanya Tucker - Delta Dawn lyrics

Album: Best Of Tanya Tucker (1992)

Delta Dawn, what´s that flower you´ve 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 has forty-one & her daddy still calls her "baby".
All the folks around Brownsville say she has crazy,
´Cause she walks downtown 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,
Promised her he would take her for his bride.

Delta Dawn, what´s that flower you´ve 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?
(X4)
