Well, D was a gambling [G] girl, [D] she gambled all around.
Oh, she was a gambling girl, [G] she would lay her money down.
[D]
She's [G] all I've got, [D] she's gone.
D's [G] dear old mother [D] took a trip out west.
When she returned, [G] little D had gone to rest.
[Em] [D]
She's all I've got, she's gone.
D's mama [G] weeped, [D] people D's daddy mourned.
It wouldn't have been so bad [G] if that poor girl had died at home.
[D]
[G] She's all I've got, [D] she's gone.

[D] [G]
[D]
Now you see Curtis looking high, [G] [D] Curtis looking low.
He shot poor Delia down, good people, with [G] a fateful .44.
[Em] [D] She's all I've [G] got, [D]
high up on the [G] housetops, [D] as high as I can see.
Looking at those rounders [G] who were looking out for me.
[Em] [D] She's all [Bm] I've got.
[D]
You can call out your rubber-tired [G]
taxis, [D] your double-seated hacks.
They took poor Delia to the graveyard well and [G] they failed to bring her back.
[D] She's all I've [G]
got, [D] she's gone.
All right,

the judge, he said to [G] Curtis, [D] what's this noise about?
It's all about them rounders, [G] they're trying to cut me out.
[D] She's all [G] I've got, [D] she's gone.
Oh, Curtis said to the [G] judge, [D] what might be my fine?
The judge, he said, poor boy, [G] you got 99.
[D] She's all [G] I've got, [D] she's gone.
[G]
[Dm]
[G] [D]
Curtis is in the [G] jailhouse, [D] drinking from an old tin cup.
Delia's in the graveyard, boy, [G] she may not never get up.
[E] [D] She's all [G] I've got, [D] she's gone.
All right,
[Dm] [D] [G]
[D] she's all I've got.
[G] [D]
I used to hear this song a whole lot, you know, and it was just another song that you'd hear.
I heard this Blind Willie McTell version of it and he sang this verse in it.
It made me think about the song.
[G]
[D] I think this is one of those jailhouse songs, one of those songs that's supposed to be written by the man who commits the crime.
I think it's Curtis who writes it and I think he's the one who sings it.
He sings this.
[G] Delia, Delia, [D] how could it be?
You loved all those rounders, [G] you never really did love me.
[D]
She's all [Bm] I've got.
[D]
He says, Delia, [G] Delia, [D] how could [G] it be?
[D] You loved all those rounders, [G] you never really did love me.
[D]
She's all I've [Bm] got, [G] [D] she's gone.
