Delia was a gambling girl, gambled all around,Delia was a gambling girl, she laid her money down.All the friends I ever had are gone.Delia's dear ol' mother took a trip out West,When she returned, little Delia gone to rest.All the friends I ever had are gone.Delia's daddy weeped, Delia's momma moaned,Wouldn't have been so bad if the poor girl died at home.All the friends I ever had are gone.Curtis' looking high, Curtis' looking low,He shot poor Delia down with a cruel forty-four.All the friends I ever had are gone.High up on the housetops, high as I can see,Looking for them rounders, looking out for me.All the friends I ever had are gone.Men in Atlanta, tryin' to pass for white,Delia's in the graveyard, boys, six feet out of sight.All the friends I ever had are gone.Judge says to Curtis, "What's this noise about?""All about them rounders, Judge, tryin' to cut me out."All the friends I ever had are gone.Curtis said to the judge, "What might be my fine?"Judge says, "Poor boy, you got ninety-nine."All the friends I ever had are gone.Curtis' in the jail house, drinking from an old tin cup,Delia's in the graveyard, she ain't gettin' up.All the friends I ever had are gone.Delia, oh Delia, how can it be?You loved all them rounders, never did love me.All the friends I ever had are gone.Delia, oh Delia, how can it be?You wanted all them rounders, never had time for me.All the friends I ever had are gone.
