Lyrics
[verse]
Down in the delta where the river bends slow
There's a story that the old folks know
Dust on the fiddle, lantern on the shelf
Every man down there wrestling with himself
[verse]
Gritty little town where the trains don't stop
Everybody hustling just to reach the top
Neon in the window, smoke up in the bar
Somebody's always chasing some old scar
[chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, feel it in your bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this old road of stones
Gritty and it's raw, gritty and it's real
This is how the delta night is gonna make you feel
[verse]
Guitar's cutting sharp against the summer haze
Every single memory a hazy kind of maze
Nobody's innocent down on this old street
Everybody's dancing to the same old beat
[chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, feel it in your bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this old road of stones
Gritty and it's raw, gritty and it's real
This is how the delta night is gonna make you feel
[bridge]
Whoa, the night is heavy, whoa, the night is long
Whoa, everybody's singing the same old song
Whoa, the river's rolling, taking us along
[chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, feel it in your bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this old road of stones
Gritty and it's raw, gritty and it's real
This is how the delta night is gonna make you feel
