She Lyrics - Singles - Emmylou Harris

She... 

She came from the land of cotton 

A land that was nearly forgotten 

By everyone 

And she... 

She worked and she slaved so hard 

A big ol' field was her backyard 

In the delta sun 

Ah, but she sure could sing 

Oh She sure could sing

The he... 

Looked down and he took a little pity 

The whole town swore he decided 

He help her some 

And he... 

Didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty 

For deep inside his heart he knew 

She was the only one 

Ah, but she sure could sing 

My, my she sure could sing 

She had faith and she had believin' 

Led all the people together in singin' 

She prayed every night 

To the Lord up above 

Hallelujah 

Oh, hallelujah 

Photos 

They... 

Would walk singin' songs by the river 

Even when she knew for sure 

She had to go away 

And she 

Never knew what her life was to give her 

Never had to worry about it 

For one single day 

Ah, but she sure could sing 

My, my but she sure could sing 

Oh she sure could sing
