Tupelo? I dont know the song and the only lyrics I can find for a sone named Tupelo are by "Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds" and go:
Looka yonder! Looka yonder!
Looka yonder! A big black cloud come!
A big black cloud come!
O comes to Tupelo. Comes to Tupelo

I thought Tupelo Honey, just didn't think it fit B/C of the additional word.
Heck, I dont know.

TDOG, What is the answer?
