Emmylou Harris - Boy From Tupelo [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Like the buffalo
That boy from Tupelo
Any way the wind can blow
That's where I'm going to 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

[Verse 2]
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 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 oughta 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

[Outro]
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 its too late now
Just ask the boy from Tupelo
He's the king and he oughta know
