Delta Dawn Songtext

von Waylon Jennings

Worum geht es in dem Song?

"Delta Dawn" ist ein Song über eine Frau namens Delta Dawn, die in ihrer Jugend als die hübscheste Frau angesehen wurde....

In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn
Prettiest woman you ever had laid eyes on
But a man of low degree stood by her side
Promised her hed take her for his bride but he lied

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose of days gone by
Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

Shes forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks around Brownsville say shes crazy
Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose of days gone by
Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose of days gone by
Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

Delta Dawn, whats that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose of days gone by
Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

Delta Dawn whats that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose of days gone by
Did I hear you say he was meetin you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?
