[Verse 1]
C D F
Woman of the country now I found you

Longing in your soft and fertile delta
G7 Em Bb F
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing

For the warm and tender shelter of my body
[Chorus]

'Cause you're mine... Delta lady
Bb F C G
Yeah you're mine, be all mine Delta lady
[Verse 2]
C D F
Please don't ask how many times I found you

Standing wet and naked in the garden
G7 Em Bb F
And I think of days and the different ways I held you

I held you closely to me, yes our heart was beating
[Chorus]

'Cause you're mine... Delta lady

There are concrete mountains in the city
C F C
And pretty city women live inside them
G7 Em Bb F
And yet it seems the city scene is lacking

I'm so glad you're waiting for me in the country

'Cause you're mine... Delta lady

Darlin' you're mine, be all mine Delta lady

You're mine... Delta lady

Gonna walk, gonna talk, gonna scream and shout

Gonna tell all the world, what I'm thinkin' about!
