Now Delia cursed Tony
Was on one Saturday night
She cursed, cursed him such a wicked curse
That he swore to take her life
Delia gone, one more round, Delia gone
First time that Tony shot Delia
He shot her right in the side
The second time he shot her
She gave up the ghost and died
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Now the reason why Tony shot Delia
Curse, cursed him such a wicked curse
If Tony hadn't shot little Delia
She might've cursed him worse
Now Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
(Alright, Taj Mahal)
On a Monday, Tony was arrested
On Tuesday, his case was tried
Jury found him guilty
He began to roll his eyes
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Ninety years in prison
Tony told the judge, "That is no time
'Cause I've got a brother down in New Orleans
Serving nine-hundred ninety and nine"
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Now Tony is in prison
He's drinking from a silver cup
While Delia's six foot under
Trying her level best to get up
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
(One more time)
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
