Artist/Band: Loretta Lynn
Lyrics for Song: Delta Dawn
Lyrics for Album: Here I Am Again [1972]



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.



She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby

All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy

'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand

Lookin' for a mysterious dark haired man.



In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn

Prettiest woman you ever had laid eyes upon

But a man of low degree stood by her side

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.



She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby

All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy

'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand

Lookin' for a mysterious dark haired man.



In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn

Prettiest woman you ever had laid eyes upon

But a man of low degree stood by her side

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.



She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby

All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy

'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand

Lookin' for a mysterious dark haired man.



In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn

Prettiest woman you ever had laid eyes upon

But a man of low degree stood by her side

Promised her he'd take her for his bride.



Delta Dawn...
