Memphis

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee And help me find the party trying to get in touch with me She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call Because my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall [Verse 2] Yeah, help me, information, get in touch with my Marie She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee Hеr home is on the south side, high up on a ridgе Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge [Verse 3] Yeah, help me, information, more than that I cannot add Only that I miss her so and all the fun we had Well, we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee [Verse 4] Yeah, last time I saw Marie, she's a-waving me goodbye With a-hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye Marie was only six years old, information please Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
