Default Allowing row deletion in worksheet with locked cells

I have a need to create an Excel file that has one column that contains
values that I don't want the user to be able to change, however, they can add
new rows (the locked column would be blank) and delete rows. I unlocked the
columns that they can manipulate, locked the one column and then when I
protected the worksheet I said to allow users to insert and delete rows. I
can add a row but I cannot delete a row. It tells me that the row has a
locked cell and I must remove worksheet protection before I can delete the
row.

Is there a way to lock column values but still be able to delete the row?
