Bobbie Gentry Delta Man Lyrics

Gentle country man now that I found you Waiting in your rich and fertile delta I will whisper songs to satisfy your longing For the warm and tender shelter of my body And you're mine, yes your my Delta man Yes you're mine, dear you're my Delta man Please don't ask how many times I found you Standing waiting for me under the shade tree And I think of days, and different ways, you held me Understand now gentleman, I am a lady And you're mine, yes your my Delta man Yes you're mine, dear you're my Delta man Oh when I'm home again in the city I think of you because I love you When I get back uptown it ain't the same, no All them city men don't do nothing to me And you know it seems in all my dreams I want you I'm so glad you're waiting for me down in the country Well you're mine, yes your my Delta man Yes you're mine, dear you're my Delta man Oh you're mine, yes your my Delta man Oh you're mine, dear you're my Delta man
