Norah Jones - She 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
