Delia Gone, One More Roun', Delia Gone By. L. Charles* As Sung in NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS By picturesque “SNOW” SMITH
Delia left Tony, On a Saturday night, It made him sore and so he swore to shoot her down at sight.
[chorus] Delia Gone, One More Roun' Delia Gone. Delia Gone, One More Roun' Delia Gone. Delia Gone, One More Roun' Delia Gone. Delia left Tony on a Saturday night. Delia Gone, One More Roun' Delia Gone.
She came 'round the mountain, In her “ca-bri-o-lay.” While he was aiming at the mountain, she got in the way. [cho.]
The first time he shot her, She was hit in the side. The second time his gun went off, she bowed her head and died.
The reason he shot her, Was because of a curse. And if he had not shot her down, she might have cursed him worse.
Delilah clipped Samson – That's what Delia had done. Now Tony was no Samson but he sure could aim a gun.
Though Tony once loved her, She went out on the loose. She vowed she would not cook for Tony, so he cooked her goose.
A two-seat buggy, Just a broken-down hack – Took Delia to the graveyard and it never brought her back.
On Monday arrested, Tuesday – Tony was tried. The found him guilty, so he also took a one-way ride.” [Edward B. Marks Music Corporation, 1940] [Sheet music.]
