Boy from Tupelo |
| You don’t love me, this I know |
| Don’t need a Bible to tell me so |
| I hung around a little too long |
| I was good, but now I’m gone |
| Like the buffalo |
| That boy from Tupelo |
| Any way the wind can blow |
| That’s where I’m gonna go |
| I’ll be gone like a five and dime |
| It’ll be the perfect crime |
| Just ask the boy from Tupelo |
| He’s the king and he ought to know |
| The shoulder I’ve been leanin' on |
| Is the coldest place I’ve ever known |
| There’s nothing left for me round here |
| Looks like it’s time to disappear |
| Like the buffalo |
| That boy from Tupelo |
| The old wall down in Jericho |
| Maybelle on the radio |
| I’ll be gone like a five and dime |
| It’ll be the perfect crime |
| Just ask the boy from Tupelo |
| He’s the king and he ought to know |
| You don’t love me, this I know |
| Don’t need a Bible to tell me so |
| But it’s a shame and it’s a sin |
| Everything I could have been |
| Your last chance Texaco |
| Your sweetheart of the rodeo |
| A Juliet to your Romeo |
| The border you cross into Mexico |
| I’ll never understand why or how |
| Oh but baby, it’s too late now |
| Just ask the boy from Tupelo |
| He’s the king and he ought to know |
