Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee 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 My uncle took the message, and he wrote it on the wall [Verse 2] Help me, information, to get in touch with my Marie She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee Her home is on the south side, high upon a ridge Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge [Guitar solo] [Verse 3] Help me, information, more than that I cannot add Only that I miss her and all the fun we had But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee [Verse 4] The last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye With hurry-home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye Marie is only six years old, information, please Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
