Back To Tupelo Lyrics – Mark Knopfler

Singer: Mark Knopfler
Title: Back To Tupelo

Around the time of ‘clambake’
Movie number twenty-five
You and the lying dutchman
Are still in overdrive

You’re as strong as when you started
Mississippi in your soul
You can still be marlon brando
And the king of rock and roll

It isn’t just the records
No, you must have hollywood
The songs alone are not enough
That much is understood

You’ll soon be back in memphis
Maybe then you’ll know what to do
The storylines they’re giving you
Are just not ringing true

Oh, it’s a ways to go
Back to Tupelo
When you’re young and beautiful
Your dreams are all ideals

Later on it’s not the same
Lord, everything is real
Sixteen hundred miles of highway
Roll back to the truth

And a song to give your mother
In your first recording booth
Around the time of ‘clambake’
That old dream’s still rolling on

Sometimes there’ll be the feeling
Things are going wrong
The morning star is fading
Lord, the mississippi’s cold

You can still be marlon brando
And the king of rock and roll
But it’s a ways to go
Back to Tupelo
