Delia
Blind willie mctellGambled all around.
She was a gamblin' girl,
She laid her money down.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Delia's dear mother
Took a trip out west,
When she returned,
Little Delia had gone to rest.
She's all I got, and it's gone
Delia's mother weeps,
Delia's father mourns,
Wouldn't have hit so bad
If our child had died at home.
She's all I got and it's gone.
Delia, Delia, how can it be?
Say you love them rounders, and don't love me.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Cutty keepin' in my room,
Drinkin' it out a silver cup.
Delia she's in the graveyard,
May not never wake up.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Rubber-tire buggy, double-seated hack,
Taken Delia to the cemetery,
But failed to bring her back.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Delia, Delia.
Poor girl, she's gone.
With all I hate, she done left me all alone.
She's all I got it's gone.
Sheriff said to Curtis,
"what that stuff's about?"
On account o' those gamblin's
They tryin' to drive me out.
She's all I got it's gone
Curtis went to Church,
What may be more fine?
I done told you, poor boy
You gotta learn and learn.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Up on the house-top,
High above the sea,
Lookin' at those those rounders,
Lookin' up to me.
She's all I got, and it's gone.
Kenny lookin' high, Kenny lookin' low,
Shot poor Delia down with that hated.44
She's all I got, and it's gone.
