Lyrics
Tupelo Blues
It's been a good night Babe,
But I gotta go
It's been a good night babe,
But I gotta go
Gotta catch that train down to Tupelo
It's been a fine time babe,
but I can't stay
It's been a fine time babe,
But I can't stay
I'm gonna play the blues to earn my way.
I'm gonna woodshed babe to pay my dues.
I'm gonna woodshed babe to pay my dues.
When I come home, I'll be the King of the Blues.
I'm gonna meet the King of Rock n' Roll.
I'm gonna meet the king of Rock n' Roll.
We'll go on down to the house of Rhythm
and soul.
