Lyrics

Around the time of clambake Movie number twenty five You and the lying Dutchman Are still in overdrive You're strong as when you started Mississippi in your soul You can still be Marlon Brando And the King of Rock 'n' 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 story lines they're giving you Are just not ringing true Oh, it's ways to go Back to Tupelo It's ways to go Back to Tupelo When you're young and beautiful Your dreams are all ideal Later on it's not the same Lord, everythin' is real Sixteen hundred miles of highway Roll back to the truth And a song to give your mother In your first recordin' booth Around the time of clambake That old dream's still rollin' on Sometimes there'll be the feelin' Things are going wrong Mornin' star is fadin' Lord, Mississippi's cold You can still be Marlon Brando And the King of Rock 'n' Roll Oh, it's ways to go Back to Tupelo It's ways to go Back to Tupelo
