They came across the delta
and got together one time again
And camped out on the land
about a hundred miles from New Orleans
In the grove of a campfire
I saw a man, his children and his wife
Like the others they had come
to get away from the hectic life
Delta love, you be the last?
Has this become a thing of the past?
I know that you can feel it too,
you're having a hard time
coming through,
dear to you.
I heard the music ringing
through the dark woods,
I saw the candles glowing in the night
And Javelin River, oh
I heard you took another life
Delta love, will you be the last?
Has this become a thing of the past?
I know that you can feel it too
You're having a hard time
coming through
Yeah, yeah, yeah
There were some there
who took the bad road
And they looked to be so tired and worn
There were some who died there
But then again another one was born
Delta Love, can you be found?
Tell me what is going down
Has this become a thing of the past
Delta Love, you'll be the last
Delta Love
Delta Love
Delta Love
Delta Love
You
