Well, my home's in the delta
Way out on that farmer's road
Now you know I'm leaving Chicago
And people, I sure do hate to go

Now you know I'm leaving here in the morning
Won't be back no more
Well, I know my little baby
This girl don't know what a shape I'm in

You know I haven't had no lovin'
Boy, you know, in God-knows-when
Now you know I just been sittin' here thinkin'
Wondering where in the world she benn

Look out

Well, I feel like cryin'
But you know, the tears won't come down
I feel like cryin'
But you know, the tears won't come down
Ah, you know I got a funny feelin'
I'm gonna have to leave your town

Hm-mm-mm have mercy

Hm-mm-mm
Ah, you know I just been sittin' here thinkin'
Wondering where in the world she been
