Delia's Gone



Tony shot his Delia,

'Twas on one Christmas night;

First thing she did

Was hang her head and die.



cho: Delia's gone, one more round,

Delia's gone, one more round,

Delia's gone, one more round,

Delia's gone, one more round.



Sent for the doctor,

The doctor come too late.

Sent for the minister

To lay out Delia straight.



Delia, oh Delia,

Where you been so long ?

Everybody's talkin' about

Poor Delia's dead and gone.



Rubber-tired buggy,

Rubber-tired hack

Took Delia to the graveyard,

Ain't gonna bring her back.



Reason that he shot her

She curesed him an awfl curse

If he hadn't of shot her

She would have cursed him worse.
