Bob Dylan - Delia Lyrics

Send "Delia" ringtone to your cell

Delia was a gambling girl gambled all around

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.

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.
