Muddy Waters - The Folk Singer

My Home Is in the Delta

Well, my home's in the delta
Way out on that farmer's road
Now you know I'm leavin' to Chicago
And, people, I sure do hate to go

Now you know I'm leaving here in the morning
Won't be back no more

Well, I know my little baby
This girl don't know what a shape I'm in
You know I haven't had no lovin'
Boy, you know, in God knows when

Now you know I just been sittin' here thinkin'
Wondering where in the world she been

Look out

Well, I feel like cryin'
But you know, the tears won't come down
I feel like cryin'
But you know, the tears won't come down

Ah, you know I got a funny feelin'
I'ma have to leave your town

Hm-hm, hm-hmm
Have mercy
Hm-hm, hm-hmm

Ah, you know I just been sittin' here thinkin'
Wondering where in the world she been
