Look yonder! Look yonder!
Look yonder! A big black cloud come!

Yonder on the horizon
Yonder on the horizon
Fm
Distant thunder rumble. Distant thunder rumble
Rumble hungry like the Beast

Tupelo bound. Tupelo-o-o. Yeah Tupelo

The Beast it cometh, Tupelo bound

Why the hen won't lay no egg
Can't get that cock to crow

You can say these streets are rivers
You can call these rivers streets

Oh go to sleep little children
The sandmans on his way
D#
In Tupelo! Tupelo-o-o!
Fm
Til The King is born in Tupelo!
Fm
In a clapboard shack with a roof of tin
Where the rain came down and leaked within
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Oh Tupelo!
Fm
With a bottle and a box and a cradle of straw
Fm
Saturday gives what Sunday steals
And a child is born at a brothers' heels
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Hey Tupelo!
Fm
In a shoebox buried with a ribbon of red
Fm
Oh the mama rock you little one slow
Mama rock your baby
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Yeah Tupelo!
Fm
And carry the burden of Tupelo
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Oh Tupelo! Yeah!
Fm
The King will walk on Tupelo!
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Oh Tupelo!
Fm
He carried the burden out of Tupelo!
D#
Tupelo-o-o! Hey Tupelo!
Fm
You will reap just what you sow
