about

Last Train To Tupelo is the second single from Davey Long's debut album Eitilit.

lyrics

He was Born in a shotgun shack
A mystery train on a one-way track
Lips curled
Blue shoes made of suede

Beale street suits
Pink automobiles
Baby face , Behind the wheel
His Hips twirl, like a dust bowl hurricane


All The Southern girls still waitin’ at the station
For A blue-eyed King of rock n’ roll
He’s Just a Country boy
On the last train to Tupelo

From the Jamboree and one night stands
Tearing it up in Scotty’s band
Past the cotton fields on the freeway to Graceland


All The Southern girls still waitin’ at the station
For a blue-eyed King of rock n’ roll
He’s Just a Country boy
On the last train to Tupelo


The colonel went down to Hollywood
Made all the B movies, paid in blood
Then In ‘68, just like James Dean
Elvis got reborn , on the TV screen


All The Southern girls still waitin’ at the station
For A blue-eyed King of rock n’ roll

He's Just a Country boy
On the last train to Tupelo

He’s Just a country boy
On the last train to tupelo

He’s Just a country boy
On the last train to tupelo



Along the lazy
Mississippi
He Rides the rails
To Tupelo
