[Steve Earle - Delta Momma Blues lyrics]
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
And if you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
If you're blue, don't cry
Just wander right downtown
You can find your delta momma waiting there
I thought you knew that I
Would never let you down
I can ease your mind and
Take away all your cares
Come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
If you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
If the grass grows brown
Don't you hang your head too low
There ain't no need for you to sit and pine
If you just ask around
Then I'm sure someone will know
Just exactly what it takes to get
You back to feeling fine
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
If you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
Well, if you don't know by now what
I've been trying so hard to say
Well, my delta boy
I'm afraid you're up too tight
But take it slow and somehow you
Come meandering out my way
And I'll take you in my
Arms and make it right
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
And if you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
I want to be your delta momma for a while
And if you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
If you're blue, don't cry
Just wander right downtown
You can find your delta momma waiting there
I thought you knew that I
Would never let you down
I can ease your mind and
Take away all your cares
Come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
If you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
If the grass grows brown
Don't you hang your head too low
There ain't no need for you to sit and pine
If you just ask around
Then I'm sure someone will know
Just exactly what it takes to get
You back to feeling fine
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
If you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
Well, if you don't know by now what
I've been trying so hard to say
Well, my delta boy
I'm afraid you're up too tight
But take it slow and somehow you
Come meandering out my way
And I'll take you in my
Arms and make it right
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
And if you stay
You'll see I can bring you lots of joy
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
Well, come away with me, my little delta boy
I want to be your delta momma for a while
