A
Well everybody telling me they're leaving
A7
Tired of this town and all the deceiving
D
You know they've all got religion see visions
A
Everything that they do
E7 D7 A
Me I got the deep south 61 Delta highway blues
[Verse]
A
Lost my roadmap in Memphis but I know I'm headed south
A7
I feel the Mississippi call me down to its mouth
D A
To a town called New Orleans where they call a street a La Rue
E7 D7
Cajun ladies know about these deep south 61 Delta
A
highway blues
[Verse]
A
And it's this way baby that way anyway you feel is right
A7
The Bayou's on fire in the southland tonight
D A
I've been everywhere baby but I've never been nowhere with you
E7 D7 A
Shake these deep south 61 Delta highway blues
[Verse]
A
And I'm setting on the levee trying to stay high and dry
A7
Setting on the levee watch my life passing by
D A
Water gets much higher it will start flowing into my boots
E7 D7 A
No way to lose these deep south 61 Delta highway blues
[Verse]
A
Well everybody telling me they're leaving
A7
Tired of this town and all the deceiving
D
You know they've all got religion see visions
A
Everything that they do
E7 D7 A
Me I got the deep south 61 Delta highway blues
