She Lyrics - Gp - Gram Parsons

she, she came from the land of the cotton 

land that was nearly forgotten by everyone 

and she, she worked and she slaved so hard 

a big old field was her back yard in the delta sun 

ooh, but she sure could sing 

ooh, she sure could sing 

then he looked down and he took a little pity 

the whole town swore he decided he'd help her some 

but he didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty 

for deep inside his heart he knew she was the only one 

ooh, but she sure could sing 

yeah, she sure could sing 

she had faith, she had believing 

she led all the people together in singing 

and she prayed every night to the lord up above 

singing hallelujah, ooh hallelujah 

they use to walk singing songs by the river 

even when she knew for sure she had to go away 

and she never knew what her life had to give her 

and never had to worry about it for one single day 

ooh my but she sure could sing 

ooh, she sure could sing 

she had faith, she had believing 

led all the people together in singing 

and she prayed every night to the lord up above 

singing hallelujah, ooh hallelujah 

she, she came from the land of the cotton 

land that was nearly forgotten by everyone 

and she, she worked and she slaved so hard 

a big old field was her back yard in the delta sun 

ooh, but she sure could sing 

my, my, my she sure could sing 

ooh, yeah she sure could sing 

ooh, she sure could sing
