Delta slide done been here and gone
Say, the Delta slide, baby, done been here and gone
Take me out the delta, baby, ‘fore the water rise
Take me outta the delta, ‘fore the water rise
And if I don't get drownded, baby, gonna sure, Lord, lose my mind
Cryin Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Lord, I wonder what is I'm goin' do
Well I can't do nothin' but hang my head and cry
Baby, when I leave I ain't comin' here no more
When I leave here, comin' here no more
Lord, I'm goin' away, baby, worry you off my mind
Cryin' Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord,
Lord, I wonder, wonder to myself
Cryin', good Lord, I wonder, and I wonder to myself
