She - Remastered Version

She
She came from the land of the 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

Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh, 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

And he
Didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty
For deep inside his heart, he knew
She was the only one

Oh, but she sure could sing
My, my, she sure could sing

She had faith and she had believin'
She led all the people together in singin'
And she prayed every night
To the Lord up above
Hallelujah
Oh, hallelujah

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 had to give her
And never had to worry about it
For one single day

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