Larkin Poe - Tears of Blue to Gold lyrics
[Larkin Poe - Tears of Blue to Gold lyrics]
Well, I lived next door to royalty
A skinny little kid just like me
We'd go hunt down the honeybees
Back in the days gone by
His daddy had a car that would go sometimes
That'd engine roar, he'd let us ride
Barbed-wire fences flyin' far behind
Back in the days gone by
Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Tupelo rock 'n roll singin' in the kitchen
Pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
I was a Pepsi-Cola factory man
Made my livin' with my own two hands
That skinny kid moved up to Graceland
Back in the days gone by
We slept beneath our hopes and wishes
Forty-two years, me and the missus
My memories are my greatest riches
From back in the days gone by
Oh, Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Tupelo rock 'n roll singin' in the kitchen
And pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Oh, Tupelo rock 'n roll
Singin' in the kitchen
And pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
A skinny little kid just like me
We'd go hunt down the honeybees
Back in the days gone by
His daddy had a car that would go sometimes
That'd engine roar, he'd let us ride
Barbed-wire fences flyin' far behind
Back in the days gone by
Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Tupelo rock 'n roll singin' in the kitchen
Pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
I was a Pepsi-Cola factory man
Made my livin' with my own two hands
That skinny kid moved up to Graceland
Back in the days gone by
We slept beneath our hopes and wishes
Forty-two years, me and the missus
My memories are my greatest riches
From back in the days gone by
Oh, Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Tupelo rock 'n roll singin' in the kitchen
And pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Time moves on like a melody, and
I can hear those memories sing
Tupelo rest my soul take me to the river
I've been delivered
Into the hands that reach to hold
Oh, Tupelo rock 'n roll
Singin' in the kitchen
And pass the ammunition
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
Turn all your tears of blue to gold
