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

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 oughta know

The shoulder I've been leanin on

Is the coldest place I've ever known

There's nothin left for me round here

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
