Delta Getaway Lyrics

Heart full of trouble
Weighin' down like lead
Prayin' to Jesus
I don't wake up dead

Saw a man hangin'
From a cypress tree
I seen the ones who done it
Now they comin' after me

With a razor in my hand
I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bones
Call it the blues

Runnin' an' hidin'
Did I hear a hound bark?
Sleepin' by day
Movin' after dark

Headed for Chicago
With a heavy load
Tryin' to get to Memphis
On a midnight road

With a razor in my hand
I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bones
Call it the blues

Tell you people
If you dare to hear
It's a crime an' a shame
The way we're livin' in fear

It's not God's will
To keep the Black man down
With your еvil Jim Crow
An' your sundown towns

With a razor in my hand
People, I don't wanna use
Got a song in my bonеs
Call it the blues
