Verse
1
She she came from the land of the cotton
Land that was nearly forgotten by everyone
And She worked and she slaved so hard
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun
Oh Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh Oh, she sure could sing
Verse
2
He He looked down and he took a little pity
The whole town swore they knew it was to 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
Chorus
Oh Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh Oh, she sure could sing

She had faith, she had believin
Led all the people together in singin
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above
Hal le lu-jah Halle lu jah
Verse
3
They Used to walk singing songs by the river
Even when she knew for sure She had to go away
She, she never knew what her life had to give her
She never had to think about it For one single day
