Tupelo Mississippi Flash - Tom Jones[00:00:00]

He said[00:00:09]

Son my name is boregard rippy[00:00:10]

I come to you from tupelo Mississippi[00:00:13]

I write songs that'll sing like a bird[00:00:17]

I play licks on my guitar[00:00:19]

Like you ain't never heard[00:00:21]

But I'm down on my luck[00:00:22]

And things are just a little slack[00:00:23]

I gotta quarter in my pocket[00:00:25]

And a shirt on my back[00:00:27]

You buy me some supper[00:00:29]

And give me a place I can sleep[00:00:30]

I'll sing you some songs[00:00:32]

That'll rock your head on the beg[00:00:33]

I got talent boy[00:00:35]

Said back home[00:00:38]

That home me that tupelo Mississippi flash[00:00:39]

Yeah[00:00:44]

Well I knew I was in a room[00:00:54]

With some kind of a nut[00:00:56]

When he pulled out that pack[00:00:57]

Of used cigarette butts[00:00:58]

So that's when I told him[00:01:01]

We can't use you today[00:01:02]

So I handed the boy a dollar[00:01:03]

And sent him on his way[00:01:05]

Well the boss got back[00:01:07]

And we both had a laugh[00:01:08]

When I told him[00:01:10]

'bout the tupelo Mississippi flash[00:01:11]

And pretty soon I had the story circling around[00:01:13]

About this Mississippi nut[00:01:16]

That we have enough[00:01:18]

Time[00:01:19]

I said[00:01:19]

Watch him everybody[00:01:20]

The boy's squirrelly[00:01:21]

He walks around calling himself[00:01:23]

The tupelo Mississippi flash[00:01:25]

Woaahh[00:01:33]

Well it happened one day[00:01:39]

While I was driving to my home[00:01:40]

I just happened to have the car radio on[00:01:42]

When I heard the pocket raving about[00:01:46]

A brand new smash[00:01:47]

By a kid called[00:01:48]

The tupelo Mississippi flash[00:01:49]

Almost wrecked my automobile[00:01:52]

I went through red light[00:01:55]

I hit the traffic cop[00:01:58]

Well my story's got an ending[00:02:01]

And it's short and sweet[00:02:03]

You know the boss man he fired me[00:02:05]

And left me out in the street[00:02:06]

But I got a new job now[00:02:08]

And I'm as learnin' real fast[00:02:09]

I'm drivin' the bus[00:02:11]

For the tupelo Mississippi flash[00:02:13]

Oh and his the cadillac[00:02:17]

I'm driving that for him too[00:02:18]

And that yacht he's got[00:02:21]

Admit It's a air plane[00:02:24]

Oh chauffeur show good I always say[00:02:27]

Tupelo Mississippi who ever heard of it[00:02:31]

Oh I don't kill the burn[00:02:35]

Every Somebody[00:02:38]
