Chorus:

A A D D A A
Delta Dawn, what`s that flower you have on?
A A D D A A E E
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
A A D D A A
And did I hear you say he was meeting you here today?
A A E E D D A A
To take you to his mansion in the sky?


A A D D A A
She`s forty-one and her Daddy still calls her, Baby.
A A D D A A
All the folks around Brownsville say she`s crazy.
A A D D E E A A
Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
A A D D A A
Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man.


A A D D A A
In her younger day's they called her Delta Dawn.
A A D D A A
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on.
A A D D E E A A
Then a man of low degree stood by her side.
A A D D A A
promised her he`d take her for his bride.
