Lyrics:

All night and all night tonight
And all night last night I've been saying
How each song is my favorite song
You know, every time somebody goes on
'Oh that's my favorite song'
'Although that's my favorite song!'
But this is definitely one of my favorite songs!
Otherwise I wouldn't have chosen it

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, 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
But he didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty
Deep inside his heart he knew she was the only one

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

She had faith, she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above
Singing, 'Hallelujah, Hallelujah'

They used to walk singing songs by the river
Even when she knew she'd have to go away
She never knew what her life wants to give her
Never had to worry about it for one single day

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

She had faith, she had believing
She led all the people together in singing
And she prayed every night to the Lord up above
Singing, 'Hallelujah, Hallelujah'

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