Delta Dawn:Helen Reddy.
#1 in 1973.

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.y.y.y?

#1.
                                             
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 her suitcase in her hand..
                                   
looking for a mysterious dark haired man.

#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..
                                 
promised her he`d take her for his bride.
