Текст (слова) песни: Nick Cave and The Bad Seed - Tupelo Blues (Traditional Version)
Did ya read about the flood? Happened long time ago, In Tupelo, Mississippi. There were thousands o` lives, Destroyed.
It rained, it rained, Both night and day. The poor people was worried. Didn`t have no place to go. Could hear may people, cryin` "Lord!" Have mercy!" `Cause you`re the only one, That we can turn to" Happened a long time ago. A little town, Way back in Mississippi, In Tupelo
Hm-mm, Hm-mm, Hm-mm-mm, Hm-mm, Hm-mm, Hm-mm-mm, Hm- mm, Hm-mm-mm, Hm-mm, Hm-mm, Hm-mm-mm, There was women, and there was children, They were screamin` an` cryin`, Cryin`, "Lord, have mercy! You`re the only one now, that we can turn to." Way back down in Mississippi, a little country town. I know ya read about it, `Cause I`ll never forget it. The mighty flood in Tupelo, Mississippi. Been years ago.
Hm-mm, Hm-mm Hm-mm-mm, Oh-hoh, Oh- hoh Oh-oh-oh Hm-mm-mm Oh-hmm, Lord, have mercy! Wasn`t that a mighty time? Tupelo`s gone.
