Down on the Delta, where there is shelter
no Helter Skelter, no Blues around
That's why I'm homing, I'm tired of roaming
I'm Delta bound
When night is falling, my Delta's calling
and keep on calling, I'm going down
I'm on my way now, most any day now
I'm Delta bound
Every time I close my eyes
I seem to see Louisiana
I can hear the folks down there
singing in their free and easy manner
I've been a rover, but now that's over
knee-deep in clover I'll soon be found
I'm on my way now, most any day now
I'm Delta bound
