She

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

Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing

Then he
He looked down and he took a little pity
The whole town swore he knew he'd help her some
And he
He didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty
For deep inside his heart he knew she was the only one

Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing

She had the faith, she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
And prayed every night to the Lord up above
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

And they
Use to walk singing songs by the river
Even when she knew for sure she'd have to go away
She
She never knew what her life had to give her
She never had to worry about it for one single day

Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing

She had the faith, she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
And prayed every night to the Lord up above
Singin' Hallelujah, Hallelujah

And she
She came from the land of the cotton
Land that was nearly forgotten by everyone
She
Well she worked and she slaved so hard
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun

Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
Oh Lord, but she sure could sing
