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 warmth and tender shelter of my body.



Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

Yes, you're mine, me oh my, Delta Lady.



Please don't ask how many times I found you

Standing wet and naked in the garden.

And I'll think of days and diff'rent ways I'll have you,

We were closely touching, yes our heart was beating.



Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

Said, you're mine, me oh my, Delta Lady.



Oh, when I'm home again in England;

I'll think of you, think about you ....

Because I love you, Love.



There are concrete mountains in the city

And pretty city women live inside them.

And yet it seems the city scene is lacking you.

I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country.



Oh you're my, yes you're my Delta Lady

Said, you're mine, me oh my, my Delta Lady.

Yeah you're mine, yes you're mine, my Delta Lady.

Yeah you're mine, me oh my, Delta Lady.

Said you're mine, yes you're mine, my Delta Lady.
