Sikth Tupelo Lyrics:
Looka yonder! [x5]

A big black cloud come!
Yes, a big black cloud come.

Come to the Tupelo,
Come to the Tupelo.

Yonder on the horizon,
Yonder on the horizon.
Stopped at the mighty river,
Stopped at the mighty river,
And sucked the damn thing dry,

Tupelo-o!
Oh, Tupelo,
In a valley hides a town called Tupelo.

Distant thunder rumble,
Distant thunder rumble,
Rumble hungry like the Beast,
The Beast it cometh, cometh down,
The Beast it cometh, cometh down,
Wow-wo-wo,Tupelo bound.

Tupelo-o!
Oh, Tupelo
The Beast it cometh, Tupelo bound.

Why the hen won't lay no
egg, can't get that cock
to crow,
The horse is spooked &
crazy, oh God help Tupelo
God help Tupelo,
God help Tupelo,
Oh God help Tupelo.

Ya can say these streets are rivers
Ya can call these rivers streets
Ya can tell yaself ya
dreamin' buddy, but no
sleep runs this deep,
No!
No sleep runs this deep, no
sleep runs this deep
Women at their windows, ain
crashing on the pane
Writing in the frost Tupelos'
shame, Tupelo's shame,
Tuprlo's shame,
God help Tupelo
God help Tupelo
God help Tupelo
God help Tupelo

Oh, go to sleep little
children, the sandmans on
his way,
Go to sleep little children, he
sandmans in his way,
But the little children know,
But the little children know,
They listen to the
beating of their blood,
Listen to the beating of their blood,
Listen to the beating of their blood,

Listen to the beating of their blood!

The sandman's mud!
The sandman's mud!
The sandman's mud!
The sandman's mud!

And the black rain come down,
The black rain come down,
Black rain come down,
Water, water everywhere,
Water, water everywhere,
Where no bird can fly no fish can swim
Where no bird can fly no fish can swim
No fish can swim
Until The King is born,
Until The King is born,
Until The King is born...

Tupelo-o!
Oh, Tupelo
Until The King is born in Tupelo..

In a clap-board shack with a roof of tin
Where the rain came down
and leaked within,
A young mother frozen on
a concrete floor,
With a bottle and a box and
a cradle of straw...

Tupelo-o!
Yeah! Yeah!
Hey, Tupelo!
With a bottle and a box and
a cradle of straw

Well Saturday gives what Sunday steals,
And a child is born on
his brothers heels,
Come Sunday morn the first-born dead,
In a shoebox tied with a ribbon red...

Tupelo-o!
Yeah, O Tupelo
In a shoebox buried with a ribbon red...

Mama, rock you lil' one slow,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock you lil' one slow,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock you lil' one slow,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock your baby,
Til the King is born in Tupelo
Til the King is born in Tupelo
Til the King is born in Tupelo
Til the King is born in Tupelo
Mama, rock you lil' one slow,
Mama, rock your baby,
Mama, rock you lil' one slow,
Mama, rock your baby,
Til the King is born in Tupelo,
Til the King is born in Tupelo,
Til the King is born in Tupelo,
Til the King is born in Tupelo!

Tupelo-o!
Yeah! Yeah!
And carry the burden of Tupelo,
Tupelo-o!
Yeah, yeah, yeah! Tupelo,
Tupelo, Tupelo, Tupelo...
Yeah! The King will walk on Tupelo!
Tupelo-o!
Yeah!
He carried the burden outta Tupelo!
Tupelo-o!
Yeah, Tupelo
You will reap just what you sow!
