Delta Lady Lyrics By Joe Cocker

    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 diff’rent ways i held you
    held you closely to me yes our heart was beating
    oh you’re my

    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
