Down by the riverbank in the old bayou I'm digging a grave into mud just for you And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo Blinded by the moonshine from Mexico I'm singing my blues waiting for the death row And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo Another dead baby born in Tupelo Do you believe in god do you believe in Jesus Christ Have mercy on me lord I must have been blind Got a beast inside that I sometimes just can't hide When the wolfsbane blooms and shadows come alive Death will be my bride Lost in the riverbank in the old bayou I'm digging a grave into mud just for you And the hardest rains always come from Tupelo Another dead baby born in Tupelo Do you believe in god do you believe in Jesus Christ Have mercy on me lord I must have been blind Got a beast inside that I sometimes just can't hide When the wolfsbane blooms and shadows come alive Death will be my bride Do you believe in god do you believe in Jesus Christ Have mercy on me lord But I must have been blind (Come on!) Do you believe in god do you believe in Jesus Christ Have mercy on me lord I must have been blind Got a beast inside that I sometimes just can't hide When the wolfsbane blooms and shadows come alive Death will be my bride Death will be my bride Death will be my bride... ...In the graveland...tonight
