Delta Dawn Lyrics by Bob Luman

Lonely Women Make Good Lovers

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks round Brownsville still says she's crazy
'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man
[Verse 2]
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 hе promised her he'd takе her for his bride
[Chorus]
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
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
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
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
Delta Dawn, what's that flower
