I've been on this midwest run
Strumming this guitar
And burning with that morning sun
I can't wait to head on south
I've got something there
That I just can't live without
My little tupelo
I'm down here in Montgomery
Waiting on a show
I need you more
Than you'll ever know
And I can't wait
To head on home and love on
My little tupelo
Well, everybody knows
Where Elvis is from
And darlin, that's something but
I've got one
She beats all that I've ever seen
I need her by my side
But she's down there
In Lee County
My little tupelo
I'm playing in Tucson
At some rodeo
Three more nights
I'm coming on home
To the prettiest girl I know
I love you so much
My little tupelo
I can see that guitar trail
Coming into sight
That only means
That I'm about to get it right
My little tupelo
I'm standing at your front door
And I need you to know
I've missed you more
Than you'll ever know
My little tupelo
I love you tupelo
There'll never be another tupelo
I love you tupelo
I love you tupelo
