Paroles de la chanson Tupelo par Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Looka yonder! Looka yonder!
Looka yonder! A big black cloud come!
A big black cloud come!
Yeah comes to Tupelo. Comes to Tupelo
Yonder on the horizon
Yonder on the horizon
Stopped at the mighty river
Stopped at the mighty river and
Sucked the damn thing dry
Sucked the damn thing dry
(Tupelo) Oh Tupelo
In a valley hides a town called Tupelo

Well distant thunder rumble. Distant thunder rumble
Rumble hungry like the Beast

The Beast it cometh, cometh down
The Beast it cometh, cometh down
The Beast it cometh, cometh down
Wo wo wo-o-o
Tupelo bound
Yeah, oh, Tupelo
The Beast it cometh, Tupelo bound
Why the hen will lay no egg
Can't get that cock to crow
The nag is spooked and crazy
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo

Ya can say these streets are rivers
Ya can call these rivers streets
Ya can tell ya self ya dreaming, buddy

But no sleep runs this deep
No, no sleep runs this deep
No sleep runs this deep
Women at their windows
Rain crashing on the pane
Writing in the frost
Tupelos' shame, tupelo's shame
Tupelos' shame, tupelo's shame
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo
Oh God help Tupelo

Oh go to sleep lil children
The Sandman's on his way
Oh go to sleep lil children
The Sandman's in his way
But the lil children know

But the lil children know
They listen to the beating of their blood
Listen to the beating of their blood
Listen to the beating of their blood
Listen to the beating of their blood
The sandman's mud
The sandman's mud
The sandman's mud
The sandman's mud
And the black rain come down
The black rain come down
The black rain come down
Oh water water everywhere
Water water everywhere
Where no bird can fly, no fish can swim
Where no bird can fly, no fish can swim
No fish can swim
Until The King is born

Until The King is born
(Tupelo) Yep, Tupelo
Til The King is born in Tupelo

In a clap-board shack with a roof of tin
Where the rain crashed down and leaked within
A young mother frozen on a concrete floor
In a bottle and a box and a cradle of straw
(Tupelo) Oh Tupelo
In a bottle and a box and a cradle of straw
Saturday gives what Sunday steals
And a child is born on his brother's heels
Sunday morn the first-born dead
In a shoebox tied with a ribbon of red
(Tupelo) Oh Tupelo
In a shoebox buried with a ribbon of red
Oh mama rock you lil' one slow
Mama rock your baby

Mama rock your lil' one slow
God help Tupelo
God help Tupelo
Mama rock your lil' one slow
Mama rock your lil' one slow
The lil one will walk on Tupelo
The lil one will walk on Tupelo
Black rain come down, black rain come down

The King will walk on Tupelo
The King will walk on Tupelo
(Tupelo)
And carry the burden of Tupelo
And carry the burden of Tupelo
And carry the burden of Tupelo
And carry the burden of Tupelo
(Tupelo) Oh Tupelo
Yeah, the King will walk on Tupelo

Tupelo, Tupelo
The King will walk on Tupelo!
(Tupelo) Oh Tupelo
Oh Tupelo
Yeah, the King will walk on Tupelo
(Tupelo) Yeah, oh Tupelo
He carried the burden of Tupelo
(Tupelo) Yeah, yeah Tupelo
He carried the burden of Tupelo
(Tupelo) Hey, hey, hey Tupelo
He carried the burden of Tupelo
(Tupelo) Yeah, yeah, yeah Tupelo
You will reap just what you sow
Yeah, oh Tupelo
