"SWEET DELTA CHAINS" Hungry for that catfish fry Thirsty for thunderbird wine Ooh my soul is a slave To those delta chains Muddy water runs like blood through my veins Mississippi like a soul movin' train She keeps callin' me home and i'm bound by those sweet delta chains Sweet delta chains Pining for that blood red sun Lonesome for my only one Ooh my soul is a slave To those delta chains Fields of cotton reachin' clear to the sky Moonlight shinin' in those dark southern eyes Sweat on my brow like the tears of that july rain Oh, those sweet delta chains A bottleneck slides on that wounded guitar I sing the blues to a sky full of stars A hound dog is howling and the wind bends that sugar cane Sweet delta chains Muddy water runs like blood through my veins Mississippi like a soul movin' train She keeps callin' me home and i'm bound by those sweet delta chains Sweet delta chains
