Songtext von Delta Down

June bug crawling out my window June bug he don't make a sound June bug, he don't feel the emptiness round here Of this Delta down Cotton fields outside my window Her memory anywhere I'm bound Can't break the chain of her goodbye in the breeze Leaving me So Delta down Wind through her cotton dress, Prayers in her Sunday best Magnolias blooming can't cool me down Thorns for her Congo skin Where to begin again Paying the price for freedom found Blues from the Ivory Coast Sugar and years to tote Fall like rain into the ground Just when I think I'm there Smiles turn into despair Thorns where there used to be a crown Rusty clay in blue sky morning Broken chains litter the ground Home's just a heartache And her kiss upon my cheek Leaving me So Delta down
