Epitaph

歌詞

In the winter of 1935 In the town of Tupelo The thin walls of a shotgun shack Was my shelter from the cold Twin boys were born on a winter’s day One laid still as coal So they laid them down in the cold ground To sleep beneath the snow They walk the dirt road hand in hand To school in back again Is the only child she’ll ever have He’s his only friend And as the darkness falls and the night birds call They turn on the radio To sing along till the crack of dawn Across the tracks of Tupelo They rode the sky like lightning The breeze in the holler wailed They sang a song that was pure and strong That gave like rock & roll His life became a lesson his legend became to grow The angels sang on the day he came To get born in Tupelo Hmmmmm
