Woman of the country now that I found you

Longing in your soft and fertile delta

And I whisper sighs to satisfy the longin

For the warm and tender shelter of my body

Oh, you're my, yes you're my, delta lady

Yes, a-my, need 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 the days

And different ways that I held you

We were closely touching, yes our heart was beatin

Oh you're my, yes your my, delta lady

Tell you my, be oh my, delta lady

Oh, when I'm home again in England

I think of you, love

(Think about you, oh, I think about you)

Cause, I love you, love

There are concrete mountains in the city

An pretty city women live inside them

Tell you, yet it seems, the city scene is lackin

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

Oh you're mine, yes you're my, delta lady

Tell ya my, need oh my, delta lady

(Yeah, you are)

Tell ya mine, yes you're my, delta lady

Oh, you're my, need oh my, delta lady

Tell you mine, yes you're my, delta lady

FADES:

Oh, you're mine.
