She
She, she came from the land of the cotton
The land that was nearly forgotten by everyone
She, she worked and she slaved so hard
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun
Oh, 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
But he didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty
Deep inside his heart he knew she was the only one
Oh, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
Well, she had faith and she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
She prayed every night to the Lord up above, singing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
They use to walk, singing songs by the river
Even when she knew for sure she had to go away
She never knew what her life was to give her
Never had to worry about it
For a single day
Oh, but she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
She had faith and she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above, singing
Hallelujah, oh hallelujah
Well she, she came from the land of the cotton
A land that was nearly forgotten by everyone
She, she worked and she slaved so hard
A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun
Oh, sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
Mmm, she sure could sing
Oh, she sure could sing
Ela
Ela, ela veio da terra do algodão
A terra que quase foi esquecida por todo mundo
Ela, ela trabalhou e se esforçou tanto
Um grande campo era seu quintal sob o sol do delta
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Então ele olhou pra baixo e sentiu um pouco de pena
A cidade inteira jurou que ele decidiu ajudar ela
Mas ele não se importava se ela não era muito bonita
Lá no fundo do coração, ele sabia que ela era a única
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Bem, ela tinha fé e acreditava
Ela uniu todo o povo em canções
Ela orava toda noite pro Senhor lá em cima, cantando
Aleluia, aleluia
Eles costumavam andar, cantando canções à beira do rio
Mesmo quando ela sabia que tinha que ir embora
Ela nunca soube o que a vida tinha pra dar
Nunca se preocupou com isso
Nem por um único dia
Oh, mas ela com certeza sabia cantar
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Ela tinha fé e acreditava
Ela uniu todo o povo em canções
E ela orava toda noite pro Senhor lá em cima, cantando
Aleluia, oh aleluia
Bem, ela, ela veio da terra do algodão
Uma terra que quase foi esquecida por todo mundo
Ela, ela trabalhou e se esforçou tanto
Um grande campo era seu quintal sob o sol do delta
Oh, com certeza sabia cantar
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Mmm, ela com certeza sabia cantar
Oh, ela com certeza sabia cantar
