[G]Delta [G]Dawn, what's that [C]flower you have o[G]n
Could it b[G]e a faded r[G]ose from days gone [D]by
And [G]did I hear you s[G]ay he was a-[C]meeting you here tod[G]ay
To [G]take you to his [G]mans[-]ion [D]in the [C]sky
She's [G]forty-one and her [F]daddy still calls her "b[G]aby"
[G]All the folks around [F]Brownsville say she's [G]crazy
'Cause she [C]walks a[-]round [E/B]town with a [Am]suitc[-]ase [D7]in her [G]hand
[G]Looking for a [F]mysterious dark-haired [G]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 a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky
etc...
