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 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 days and different ways I held you
Held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating.
Oh you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady.
Oh, and I'm over here in England
But I think of you, think about you
Because 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 my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady.
Oh you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady.
Oh you're my, yes, you're my Delta Lady
Yes, you're my, me oh my, Delta Lady.
