Here's the 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'd be 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/painted rose from days gone by?"
"And did I hear you say he was meeting you here today,"
"To take you to that mansion in the sky?"
That one?
Nope! Never heard it!
I think it's by Helen Reddy or Anne Murray.

Helen Reddy but I do believe Tanya Tucker did it when she was 12 or 13
years old.

She's fourty one and her daddy(?) still calls her baby
all the folks round townsville say she's crazy
cause she walks round town with a suitcase in her hand
looking for a mysterious dark haired man
In her younger days they called her Delta Dawn
Prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on
till a ????????????
promised he would take her for his bride
