The #1 song from 50 years ago was Helen Reddy’s version of “Delta Dawn”.
______________________
Delta Dawn
Songwriter: Larry Collins and Alex Harvey
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 a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?
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 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
Then a man of low degree stood by her side
Promised her he'd take her for his bride
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 a-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 a-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 a-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 a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

I’ve just discovered this band and what a discovery it was! Knowing their name, I allways thought it is some third tier rock band and never even bothered checking. Well they are anything but third tier rock band. Rock - yes, as well as blues, vaudeville and garage band. Absolutely live up to the first part of their name being as Sensational as it gets. I just love their unique, cabbaret/theatrical take on rock.
