Slidin’ Delta (L.O.C. recordings) Mississippi John Hurt

[Spoken]
This is "Slidin' Delta," this one:

The sliding Delta run right by my door
Slidin' Delta, run right by my door

I'm goin' up the country, baby, don't you want to go?
I'm goin' up the country, baby, don't you want to go?

I'm goin' up the country, I ain't comin' back no more
I'm goin' up the country, and I ain't comin' back no more

The big Kate Allen, got ways just like a man
It'll steal your baby every time she land

I said, the big Kate Allen, got ways just like a man
Steal your baby every time she land

This slidin' Delta run right by my door
Slidin' Delta, run right by my door

My suitcase packed, and my trunk's already gone
I can't see, baby, what in the world's you waitin' on?

I says, I'm goin' up the country don't you want to go?
I'm goin' up the country and I ain't comin' back no more
