jill johnson & miriam bryant - delta dawn lyrics

Loading...

[chorus: jill johnson & miriam bryant]
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: jill johnson]
she’s forty-one
and her daddy still calls her baby
all the folks round brownsville say she’s crazy
’cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
waiting for a mysterious dark haired man

[verse 2: miriam bryant, jill johnson & miriam bryant]
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

[chorus: jill johnson & miriam bryant]
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 3: miriam bryant, jill johnson & miriam bryant]
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

[chorus: jill johnson & miriam bryant]
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?

[outro: jill johnson & miriam bryant]
and did i hear you say he was meeting you here today
to take you to his mansion in the sky?
