Delta

Lady lights a cigarette
Hanging on the ground with a little man, honey
Tells me that i've
Through the broken bones and
Interstate money
Cry to me no more
Long for me no more

Missisippi delta
Runs right through your veins
Splits into fissures
And you've never been the same
But you pulled your
Face right onto me
Pulled us here just to see

If there ever were a place for you and me
It'd be way up there in the delta valleys

We're in the mountains
No rivers in the way
I keep moving further
Keep pushing you away
I won't be found raw
Near you lost and stopped

Light me anohter
Cigarette
The weekend's getting' over
And i'm not over you yet
Tell me how to live in a perfect world
When the center of me's not fully formed

I've been looking round for the end of the roadafter you
Looking around tell me what to do without you

I'll light this one and walk away
