I wandered far away from the place Where I was born and raised I suffered through the Oklahoma dry lands And through New York City's cold and rainy days And now these dried up bones of mine are powerful thirsty Just once again to feel them Mississippi rains Lord, I got that Delta dirt, Lord I got that black land Delta dirt down in my veins In my veins, added in my veins (In my veins, added in my veins) I'm goin' home this mornin' if I have to walk, run or fly I promised me as sure as I was standin' That I'm never, ever gonna say goodbye Cause this heart of mine keeps tellin' me I'm crazy To keep on wearin' the city's ball and chain When I got that Delta dirt Lord Got that black land Delta dirt down in my veins Lord, New York is mighty pretty If you don't mind what you say But I'd take a hundred acres of black land dirt Over Detroit, New York and L.A. I'm goin' home to Delta mama Cause she's got everything Gonna cure my aches and pains And I got that Delta dirt, Lord I got that black land Delta dirt down in my veins I got it in my veins (In my veins) I got it in my veins (Got it in my veins) Lord, I got it in my veins
