"Delta Hurricane" lyrics - JOHN MAYALL & THE BLUESBREAKERS

JOHN MAYALL & THE BLUESBREAKERS
"Delta Hurricane"

Have you ever been down to Memphis
Where the blues first came round
Coming from the delta backwoods
Broke and big city bound

Full moon down on Beale Street
Got moonshine in my veins
Guitar ready, my hands are steady
I'm the Delta Hurricane

If you want to play the blues electric
Chicago is the town
If you play for tips and whiskey
Down at the Checkerboard Lounge

Full moon on the South Side
And the blues are in my veins
Guitar ready, my hands are steady
I'm the Delta Hurricane

Blues switching out to the people
And the sound is all around
Blues is a storm inside of life
And I got to lay em on down

Full moon on the delta
Forever in my brain
Guitar ready, my hands are steady
I'm the Delta Hurricane
Yeah yeah yeah
