Music: Alexander Hill
[Chorus]
Down on the Delta
Where there's no shelter
No helter skelter
No blues around
I'm tired of roaming
That's why I'm homing
I'm Delta bound
[Chorus]
When night time's falling
My delta's calling
Keep on calling
I'll soon be around
I'm on my way now
Most any day now
I'm Delta bound
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I close my eyes
I seem to see Louisiana
I can hear them folks down there
Singing in their free and easy manner
[Chorus]
I've been a rover
Now that's all over
Knee deep in clover
Is where I'll be found
I'm on my way now
Most any day now
I'm Delta bound
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I close my eyes
I seem to see Louisiana
I can hear them folks down there
Singing in their strange and peculiar manner
[Chorus]
I've been a rover
Now that's all over
Knee deep in clover
Is where I'll be found
I'm on my way now
Most any day now
I'm Delta bound
