Versuri Acker Bilk – Delia gone lyrics

Delia cursed Tony
It was on one Saturday night
She cursed him such a wicked curse
That he swore he’d take her life.

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.

Well, the first time Tony shot Delia
Lord, he shot her in the side
The last time he shot poor Delia
Well, she laid right down and died.

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.

Now the reason why Tony shot Delia
Because she cursed him such a wicked curse
And if Tony hadn’t shot poor Delia
Well, she might have cursed him worse.

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.

On Monday Tony was arrested, yes
Tuesday his case was tried
The juryman found him guilty
He began to roll his eyes.

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.

„Ninety-nine years,” said Tony
„Judge, that ain’t no fine
‘Cause I’ve got a brother down in New Orleans
With nine hundred and ninety-nine.”

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.

Well, Tony is at present
He’s drinking from a silver cup
While Delia’s six foot under
Trying her level best to get up.

Delia gone, one more round
Delia gone.
