Delta Lady
Woman of the country now I've found you
Longing in your soft and fertile delta
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warmth and tender shelter of my body
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Please don't ask how many times I found you
Standing wet and naked in the garden
And I think of days and diff'rent ways I held you
Held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
And you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Oh, and I'm over here in England
But I think of you, (think about you, oh,think about you)
Because I love you, love
There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking you
I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Said, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
And you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Yeah, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Said you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Longing in your soft and fertile delta
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warmth and tender shelter of my body
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Please don't ask how many times I found you
Standing wet and naked in the garden
And I think of days and diff'rent ways I held you
Held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
And you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Oh, and I'm over here in England
But I think of you, (think about you, oh,think about you)
Because I love you, love
There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking you
I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country
Oh, you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Said, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
And you're my, yes you're my delta lady
Yeah, you're my, me oh my, delta lady
Said you're my, yes you're my delta lady
