Back To Tupelo - Live From Shangri-La Studios

Mark Knopfler

[Verse]
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

[Verse]
Well 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

[Chorus]
But it's ways to go
Back to Tupelo
Ways to go
Back to Tupelo

[Verse]
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

[Verse]
Well around the time of clambake
That old dream's still rollin' on
Sometimes you'll get the feelin'
Things are going wrong
The mornin' star is fadin'
Lord, Mississippi's cold
You can still be Marlon Brando
And the King of Rock 'n' Roll

[Chorus]
But it's ways to go
Back to Tupelo
Ways to go
Back to Tupelo
