Emmylou Harris "She" |
(Gram Parsons - Chris Ethridge) She, she came from the land of cotton A land that was nearly forgotten by everyone She she worked and she slaved so hard A big ol' field was her backyard in the delta sun. Oh but she sure could sing oh she sure could sing Then he looked down and he took a little pity The whole town swore he decided he help her some He didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty. For deep inside his heart he knew she was the only one Oh but she sure could sing oh she sure could sing She had faith she had believin' she led all the people together in singin' She prayed every night to the Lord up above singin', Hallelujah, oh hallelujah. They would walk singin' songs by the river Even when she knew for sure she had to go away She never knew what her life had to give her Never had to worry about it for one single day. Oh, but she sure could sing. Oh, she sure could sing. Oh, she sure could sing... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
