Darkness On The Delta

When it's darkness
 On the Delta
 Now's the time that my heart is light
 When it's darkness
 On the Delta
 Let me linger in the shelter of your night
 Fields of cotton
 All around me
 Voices ringing soft and low
 God I'm so lucky
 That you've found me
 Where the muddy Mississippi waters flow
 Now, I'm just lounging on the levee
 Listening to the nightingale
 Way up above
 There's laughter on the levee
 No one's heart is heavy
 As all God's children got
 Someone to love
 When it's darkness
 On the Delta
 Only heaven is is sight
 When it's darkness
 On the Delta
 Let me linger in the shelter of your night
