Where have you been so long
Everybody's talking about Delia
They say she's done me wrong
They took my Delia to the graveyard
Took her in a long black hearse
If I hadn't a shot my poor Delia
I believe she'd a got me first
Delia's gone
I went down to the graveyard
To look at my Delias face
I said Delia girl how I loved you
How I wish I could take your place
Jailer oh Jailer
Tell me how can I sleep
When all around my bed side
I hear little Delias feet
Delia's gone
Some gave Delia a dollar
Some gave her two or three
But I didn't give Delia a penny
Cause she belonged to me
Delia's gone Delia's gone
