Delia Lyrics

Delia was a gambling girl, she laid her money down.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Delia's dear ol' mother took a trip out West

When she returned, little Delia'd gone to rest.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Delia's Daddy weeped, Delia's momma moaned

Wouldn't have been so bad if the poor girl died at home.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Curtis's looking high, Curtis's looking low

He shot poor Delia down with a cruel forty-four.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

High upon the housetops, high as I can see

Looking for them rounders, looking out for me.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Men in Atlanta, trying to pass for white

Delia's in the graveyard, boys, six feet out of sight.

All the friends I ever had are gone.Bob Dylan - Delia - http://motolyrics.com/bob-dylan/delia-lyrics.html

Judge says to Curtis, "What's this noise about ?"

"All about them rounders, Judge, tryin' to cut me out."

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Curtis said to the judge "What might be my fine ?"

Judge says, "Poor boy, you got ninety-nine."

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Curtis' in the jailhouse, drinking from an old tin cup

Delia's in the graveyard, she ain't gettin' up.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Delia, oh Delia, how can it be ?

You loved all them rounders, never did love me.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Delia, oh Delia, how could it be ?

You wanted all them rounders, never had time for me.

All the friends I ever had are gone.

Bob Dylan Delia
