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 warm and tender shelter of my body
Oh you're my Delta lady
Yeah 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 the days and the different ways I held you
I held you closely to me yes our heart was beating
Oh you're my Delta lady
Yeah you're my me oh my
Delta lady
Whoa when I'm over here in England
And I'm thinking of you girl
Because I love you yes I do (Yes I do)
Whoa I love you alright (Oh I love you ooh-ooh-ooh)
There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them (Girl)
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking
I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country
Oh you're my Delta lady
Darling you're my whoa me oh my
Delta lady woo
(Oh you're my, oh you're my)
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My, my Delta lady
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My Delta lady
Oh you're my Delta lady
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My Delta lady
My Delta lady...
Longing in your soft and fertile Delta
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warm and tender shelter of my body
Oh you're my Delta lady
Yeah 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 the days and the different ways I held you
I held you closely to me yes our heart was beating
Oh you're my Delta lady
Yeah you're my me oh my
Delta lady
Whoa when I'm over here in England
And I'm thinking of you girl
Because I love you yes I do (Yes I do)
Whoa I love you alright (Oh I love you ooh-ooh-ooh)
There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them (Girl)
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking
I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country
Oh you're my Delta lady
Darling you're my whoa me oh my
Delta lady woo
(Oh you're my, oh you're my)
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My, my Delta lady
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My Delta lady
Oh you're my Delta lady
Gonna walk an' talk an' scream an' shout
I'm gonna tell all the world what I'm thinking about
My Delta lady
My Delta lady...
