"Delta Lady" lyrics

Tedeschi Trucks Band & Leon Russell Lyrics

"Delta Lady"
(feat. John Bell)

Woman of the country, now I've found you
Living in your soft and fertile delta
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warmth and tender shelter of your body

Why you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Lord, you're mine, yes, you're my Delta Lady

Please don't ask me how many times I found you
Standing wet and naked in a garden
And I think of days and different ways I held you
Well, holding closely tight, our heart was beating

Well, you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Yeah, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady

And when I'm home alone in England
Well, I think of you, my love
Because I love you, love

My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, me oh my, Delta Lady

There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city men and women live inside them
Oh, but it seems the city scene's a little lacking
Oh, I'm just so glad you're in the country there for me

My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Oh, you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, me oh my, Delta Lady
My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, me oh my, Delta Lady
My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, me oh my, Delta Lady

My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, me oh my, Delta Lady
My, yes, you're my Delta Lady
My, my
