Harris, Emmylou - Boy From Tupelo Lyrics
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
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 oughta know
The shoulder I've been leanin on
Is the coldest place I've ever known
Looks like it's time to disapear
Like the buffalo
That boy from Tupelo
The old wall down in jericho
Maybelle on the radio
I'll be gone like the five and dime
It'll be the perfect crime
Just ask the boy from Tupelo
He's the king and he oughta know
You don't love me, this I know
Don't need a bible to tell me so
It's a shame and it's a sin
Everything I coulda been to you
Your last chance Texaco
Your sweetheart of the rodeo
A juliet to your romeo
The border you cross into Nexico
I'll never understand why or how
Oh but baby its too late now
Just ask the boy from Tupelo
He's the king and he oughta know

Harris, Emmylou Boy From Tupelo Comments
Sort of... Masterpiece.
"Maybelle on the radio....." Working the Carter family in with a "five and dime" is fantastic.
"Gone like a Five and Dime." Wow.
Emmylou, sweetheart of the rodeo.
@wunschen -thank you my friend for uploading great songs!

@YThemertY I agree with you, a great sound, clever and amusing lyrics filled with cultural references. Emmylou has a real song writing gift, even if she admits that it's a difficult and uncooperative gift. If you have a chance listen to "New Orleans" on her new album "Hard Bargain", that is great song craft. Wunsch
