(CHORUS)
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been

Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been


Tell me, mister, have you seen
The girl they call the Delta Queen
In New Orleans


He said, I know the girl you mean
She's singing at the Delta Queen

Down Seventeen

And I when I saw here there

Tell the belle slide over here
I didn't mind the smokey room
Or the smell of stale perfume


I only know that she
Was made for making love to me

Just a woman tired of being alone
The one that I'm now taking home


(CHORUS)

She left her home in Baton Rouge

She only had one pair of shoes
What could she lose
The time had come for her to chose

Between the good life and the blues
What could she do


Hey, I only know that she
Was made for making love to me
Just a woman tired of being alone

The one that I'm now taking home

(CHORUS) 2X to fade
