Subdudes - Tupelo

It was the people and the land, 


There were no rules everyone understands


When a family was family with a plan 


To live together off of their land





It hasn’t been that long ago, 


A good time was had at the picture show


Every day the farmers would go 


To a local cafe called Uncle Joe’s


That’s where all of the news was heard, 


You could recap a week in a couple words


That’s the way things go down in Tupelo, Tupelo, 


Down in Tupelo, x4





Nineteen hundred and thirty nine,


Tornado tore this poor town alive


Left many people without a home 


And they pulled together, for no one’s alone


Man is weak, many is strong, 


Friends are friends back home


That’s the way things go down in Tupelo, Tupelo, 


Down in Tupelo, x4





As a child I couldn’t wait to get out of this town in the sleepy South


I left only to find out that I love the people and the music and the places


Like in Memphis, Tennessee, they got the soul sound, 


In Austin Texas they got the Western swing, 


Down in New Orleans they got everything


Did you know ‘bout the one they call the King came from Tupelo
