Delta Dawn (1990 "Encore" Version) - Tanya Tucker

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 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

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
