Artist/Band: Cassandra Wilson
Lyrics for Song: Darkness On The Delta
Lyrics for Album: Belly Of The Sun [2002]



When it's darkness on the delta

That's the time my heart is light

When it's darkness on the delta

Let me linger in the shelter of the night



Fields of cotton all around me

Darkies singin' sweet and low

Lord, I'm lucky that you found me

Where the muddy Mississippi waters flow



Lounging on the levee

Listenin' to the nightingales way up above

Laughter on the levee

No one's heart is heavy



All God's children got someone to love

When it's darkness on the delta

Only heaven is in sight

When it's darkness on the delta

Let me linger in the shelter of the night


Album Lyrics: Belly Of The Sun [2002]
