Tupelo's Too Far




I can see Saltillo Street
And the house where I was born
I can hear gospel songs
From the church on Sunday morn
Saturday nights 'round the radio
Life was simple then
But this road I'm on won't take me there
You can't go back again
I wish I could take Route 7 8
And be there in no time
Rest beneath the sweet gum trees
Leave all my cares behind
But Tupelo's too far
I never dreamed I would be
A king much less a star
And I never knew that what I loved
Could also break my heart
I always thought if I just sang
Everything would be alright
And I don't know what went wrong
But I'm lonesome tonight
I wish I could take Route 7 8
And be there in no time
Rest beneath the sweet gum trees
Leave all my cares behind
But Tupelo's too far
Tupelo's too far
