Delta Lady

Woman of the country

Now I 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 mine delta lady

Your mine be all mine

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 mine delta lady

You're mine be all mine

Delta lady

When I'm home again in

EnglandAnd

I'm thinking of you love

Because I love you

Yes I do

I love you

There are concrete

Mountains in the city

And pretty city women

Live inside them

And yet it seems

The city scene is lacking

I'm so glad you're waiting

For me in the country

Oh you're mine delta lady

Darling you're mine be all mine

Oh you're mine delta lady

Darling you're mine be all mine
