"Delaware" is a popular song.

It was written by Irving Gordon. The song was published in 1959.

Gordon was apparently inspired to write the song after the success of another song that he wrote punning on the name of States of the United States of America: "Mister and Mississippi."

The hit version of the song was recorded by Perry Como on December 28, 1959. It was released by RCA Victor Records as a 45rpm single with catalog number 47-7670 and as a stereophonic 45rpm single with catalog number 61-7670. The flip side was "I Know What God Is." The record reached #22 on the Billboard charts.

The same recording, with the same flip side, was released by RCA in the United Kingdom with catalog number 1170. Oddly for such an "American" song, it did even better in the UK than in the US, reaching #3 on the UK charts.
