Songtexte Delta Queen - Monkey Bizness

Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?

Tell me mister, have you seen
The girl they call the Delta Queen?
He said, "I know the girl you mean"
Singing at the Delta Queen around seventeen

And when I saw her there
Silver gauze tied on her hair
I didn't mind the smoky room
Or the smell of sable perfume
I only know that she's
A fallen angel on her knees
A woman tired of being alone
One night on the talking phone

Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?

She left her home in Baton Rouge
She only had one pair of shoes
Hammer come for her blue shoes
When they cleaned out them bad blues
What good she'd use?

And when I saw her there
Silver gauze tied on her hair
I didn't mind the smoky room
Or the smell of sable perfume
I only know that she's
A fallen angel on her knees
A woman tired of being alone
One night on the talking phone

Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
Delta Queen, honey, honey
Where you been?
