Delta Dreamland Lyrics - Singles - Deborah Allen

Two young lovers on a Blytheville back road 

Laying on the levee makin' love all night long 

Wishing on a star in a southern sky 

Dreaming out loud about the rest of their lives 

They were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

They were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

She worked all day at the old shirt factory 

Thinking 'bout the boy that made her happy 

Across the street at the hardware store 

He was busy reliving the night before 

When they were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

Yes, they were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

She was seventeen and he was twenty 

When they left their home for the land of plenty 

Times were tough but they made it through 

They lived to see their dreams come true, yeah, yeah 

The years rolled by like river water 

They said goodbye to three grown daughters 

Together all alone again 

Just like they started way back when 

They were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

Yes, they were lost, lost in love in a Delta dreamland 

Two young lovers on a Blytheville back road 

Laying on the levee makin' love all night long, yeah, yeah
