Delia oh Delia
where have you
been so long
Everybody's talking bout
Delia they say she's
done me wrong
They took my Delia to
the graveyard took her
in a long black hearse
If I hadn't shot
my poor Delia I believe
she'd have got me first
Delias gone
Went down to the
graveyard to look
at my Delias face
I said Delia girl how
I loved you I wish I could
take your place
Jailer oh jailer tell
me how can I sleep
When all around my
bedside I hear little
Delias feet
Delias gone
Some gave Delia a
dollar some gave
her two or three
But I didn't give Delia
a penny cause
she belonged to me
Delias gone
Delias gone
