[Verse 1]
She, she came
From the land of the cotton
The land that was
Nearly forgotten by everyone
She, she worked and slaved so hard
A big old field was
Her backyard in the delta land

[Chorus]
Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh, that she sure could sing

[Verse 2]
He looked down and he took a little pity
The sea-southern winter
Put a breeze in her hair
He knew she didn't have to be so pretty
He knew that her bеauty
Was deep down inside her

[Chorus]
Oh, but she surе could sing
Oh, that she sure could sing

[Bridge]
She has faith, she has believing
She led all the people all together in singing
Praises of joy, to the Lord up above
Hallelujah, oh hallelujah
[Verse 3]
They use to get around
Singing songs by the river
She would leave them all together

[Chorus]
Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh, but she should could sing

[Outro/Bridge]
She has faith, she has believing
She led all the people all together in singing
Praises of joy, to the Lord up above
Hallelujah, oh hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah..
