[Verse]
C C7 F
Come away with me,
my little delta boy
G7 C G7
I wanna be your delta mama for awhile
C C7
And if you stay well you'll see
F
that I can bring you lots of joy
G7 C F G7
I can turn those little teardrops to a smile
C C7 F
Well, if you're blue don't cry
just wander right downtown
G7 C G7
you can find your delta mama waitin' there
C C7
Well, I thought you knew that I
F
would never let you down
G7 C F G7
I can ease your mind and take away your cares

Well, if the grass goes brown
F
don't you hang your head too low
G7 C G7
No, there ain't no need for you to sit and pine
C C7
If you'll just ask around
F
Well I'm sure someone will know
G7 C F G7
just exactly-what-it-takes to get-you-back-to feelin' fine
C C7 F
Come away with me,
my little delta boy
G7 C G7
I wanna be your delta mama for awhile
C C7
And if you stay well you'll see
F
that I can bring you lots of joy
G7 C F G7
I can turn those little teardrops into a smile
