Boy From Tupelo

You don't love me, this I know
 Don't need a Bible to tell me so
 I hung around a little too long
 I was good, but now I'm gone
 Like the buffalo
 That boy from Tupelo
 Any way the wind can blow
 That's where I'm gonna go
 I'll be gone like a five and dime
 It'll be the perfect crime
 Just ask the boy from Tupelo
 He's the king and he ought to know
 The shoulder I've been leanin' on
 Is the coldest place I've ever known
 There's nothing left for me round here
 Looks like it's time to disappear
 Like the buffalo
 That boy from Tupelo
 The old wall down in Jericho
 Maybelle on the radio
 I'll be gone like a five and dime
 It'll be the perfect crime
 Just ask the boy from Tupelo
 He's the king and he ought to know
 You don't love me, this I know
 Don't need a Bible to tell me so
 But it's a shame and it's a sin
 Everything I could have been
 Your last chance Texaco
 Your sweetheart of the rodeo
 A Juliet to your Romeo
 The border you cross into Mexico
 I'll never understand why or how
 Oh but baby, it's too late now
 Just ask the boy from Tupelo
 He's the king and he ought to know
