Delta Blues, is it the way it's supposed to be?
Blues can always get you down,
But the Delta Blues are really blue;
Deep, deep blue.
Blues always on the Delta;
At the corner they play that Ragtime, that Ragtime Blues.
Time and time again, I thought of the Blues
When I thought of you.
Do you ever think of me and my Blues?
You couldn't imagine how I felt on the Delta
with the Delta Blues.
So come on back, Baby,
These Delta Blues are killing me,
Just the thought of the Delta Blues,
Killing me.
