So you're heading down the Southern way
Passing through the Delta sometime today
In my mind pictures line the walls
Of a place I used to know and I vividly recall
I love you so much and you sure sing good
Did it mean so much to you if you would
Sing the Delta a love song for me
It's the land where the cotton used to grow
But owns a piece of my heart and soul
It's where my people on both sides going back
Make their living farming and filling them old cotton sacks
That took us West when I was a little child
It's in my blood, it's still flowing strong and wild
Sing the Delta a love song for me
Sing the Delta a love song for me
Lay down on that old river, let it roll on out to sea
Delta lived in my Momma's voice and her hands
It's a language my spirit understands
Sing the Delta a love song for me
You give it all just the way your Daddy does
You both got your demons under a cloaking love
And I know that life's putting your calling to the test
But you got something that sets you right alongside the very best
So take that heart as good as Heaven ever made
And that voice that leaves like August in the shade
Sing the Delta a love song for me
Sing the Delta a love song for me
Let it roll that old cradle, roll on out to sea
I've been East, I've been West, and North
And that sweetness I just can't ever divorce
Sing the Delta a love song for me
