Tupelo Blues

Did ya read about the flood?

Happened long time ago

In Tupelo, Mississippi

There were thousands o' lives

DestroyedIt rained, it rained

Both night and day

The poor people was worried

Didn't have no place to goCould hear may people, cryin' "Lord, have mercy"

'Cause You're the only one that we can turn to"Happened a long time ago

A little town

Way back in Mississippi

In TupeloThere was women, and there was children

They were screamin' an' cryin'

Cryin', "Lord, have mercy

You're the only one now, that we can turn to"Way back down in Mississippi, a little country town

I know ya read about it

'Cause I'll never forget it

The mighty flood in Tupelo, Mississippi

Been years agoLord, have mercy

Wasn't that a mighty time?

Tupelo's gone
