Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 backyard in the Delta sun
Ah, but she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
[Verse 2]
Then he
Looked down and he took a little pity
The whole town swore he decided he'd 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
[Verse 3]
She had faith, and she had believing
Led all the people together in singing
She prayed every night to the Lord up above
Hallelujah
Oh, hallelujah
[Verse 4]
They
Would walk singin' songs by the river
Even when she knew for sure she'd have 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
[Verse 5]
Oh, she sure could sing
