Lyrics
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 old field was her backyard in the delta sun Oh, but she sure could sing, oh yeah 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 And oh, but she sure could sing, my, my she sure could sing She had faith and she had believin' Led all the people together in a 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 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 Oh, but she sure could sing, na, na but she sure could sing
